Trouble burning .iso onto cd-r with Nero

hey lads just recently downloaded a pc game under .iso format. i was told to burn this directly onto a cd through Nero by selecting CD (ISO). I have done this and burnt it but when i open the cd in my computer it displays only the .iso. How do i burn the files that are in the .iso onto the cd?

Help much appreciated thanks

 

You were told the wrong thing. What you did was to burn a data CD to the ISO format. What you should have done is choose "burn image" from the "Recorder" menu option. It will ask you what image file to use, and you point it at the iso file you want to burn.

 

Mine said unexpected file found. ??

 

Unexpected File Format, is what I meant.

 

yeh thanks i got mine to work.

not sure about that one, sorry, possible corruption?

 

Yes it could be corrupted or incomplete if you downloaded it with a p2p app. Maybe trying to open it in WinISO would tell you something?

 

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Downloaded it from BitTorrent. Bummer, all it is is the Motorola Phone Tools. So, not a huge loss I guess.
thanks for the help ;-)
