Hi,

I got an .iso file containing programs.
I can visualize and extract the content using Winiso or Isobuster, works perfectly.

Using Nero 6, I burnt it as an image, as I usually do, burning went fine.

But after burning, windows explorer shows me the burnt CD as totally empty, no folders, no files !

If I try to use Winiso or Isobuster on the CD, it just shows a big track of 580 MB, no more file and folder !!
So apparently NERO puts something on the CD, but what ?


Does anybody knows what's wrong ?
Thanks

ADD-ON: Using isobuster on the CD, I extracted the single track as a .tao file.
And then, if I ask Isobuster to open this file, it is able to show me all files and folders that were in my original .iso image ???


Any explanation ???

I gave up trying to figure out buggy software a while ago and Nero 6 is as buggy as they come.
Just extract the file to a folder with ISOBuster and burn them as a data CD.

This is what I did ultimately, and it worked fine.

But I am curious to know if anybody know a "better" iso image burning software ?

I use Alcohol 120% for pretting much every thing, inc iso's and has no probs.
