LOL. Sorry - it wasn't supposed to be a challenge - just me being curious.
No , I never had a problem with any boot discs.
Most Burning apps. will allow you to either Burn as Image, or Burn as Data.
If you already have a bootable . iso - choose Burn as Image - that's all you need to do.

If you choose Burn as data - it won't work.
(The Ashampoo allows you to choose Burn as data and still make it work by manual settings.)
Not necessary, though - choose the Burn as image - leave it on Max speed ( it auto adjusts so it burns behind the buffer).
I find I don't even need to verify the image - Ashampoo gets it right every time, and it's fast.
You are better using a branded dvd - I use Maxell - they are pretty cheap a spindle of 50 will keep you going a long time - about $15 US.
If you are curious about the MS bootable iso properties - they are here :
ISO9660 ( long file names ). No Joliet, No Emulation, UDF. (1.5 is good due to wide compatibilty)
