    I just finished downloading all the required stuff for the disc and created a .iso file as well. Now what do you mean by burning the .iso file? Do I need to Burn the files in the iso onto the dvd or just the .iso file? I have created the .iso using vLite.

    ISO is an image file, its like an exact copy of a disc, you need a program like nero. Theres an option on most burning programs called Burn Image to Disc. It will make the exact copy of a disc

    Burning it directly as a data disc wont work as it doesnt get burned into the bootsector of the disc
