    Got a new nx6325 notebook, XP Home, and followed the HP Recovery Manager advice to create recovery disk - but I selected the 'create iso' option instead of 'create cd\dvd'. All worked OK, and the expected two ISO files were created in the folder I selected. Now I want to burn these to DVD's, but am having no luck! Can anyone advise how I should do this? I have a range of DVD writing software, usually use Nero. Also, are the ISO's created by HP Recovery Manager bootable once I burn them to DVD or do I need to use a 'create bootable disk' option? Any help gratefully received!

    Try UltraISO, I've never had any problems with it.

    Use IMGBurn and you don't have to do anything but click which file you want to burn and it will come out perfect. I've used it like 1000x and no coasters. :D
