Frequently Asked QuestionsWhat is an ISO file?An ISO is a file containing a CD-ROM disk image. This CD-ROM disk image is an exact copy of the CD-ROM. Think of it as the equivalent of a screen capture, but instead of capturing the information on a screen, this image captures all of the information on a particular data CD-ROM. When burned as a disk image, the ISO file is turned into a duplicate CD of the original CD. If burned as a file, instead of a disk image, the CD becomes a copy of the downloaded ISO file, and the files and directories are not accessible. How do I use this CD-ROM image ISO to install data on my system?If you have a CD burner and software that can burn ISO or CD-ROM disk images, you can burn the ISO to a CD. This CD can then be used to run or install the CD and its software on your computer. Why do I see one large ISO file on my burned CD instead of files and directories?This happens when you copy the downloaded ISO file to a CD instead of burning it as a disk image. Some software will automatically recognize a ISO file and burn it correctly. Some software requires a specific menu selection such as 'Create CD From Disc Image', 'Burn Image', or something similar. Instructions for several burning programs can be found there.  Created : 2002-06-21
