    Can't boot ISO

    Starting to lose it! Burned an ISO file to a DVD. On boot, the system just bypasses the disc with the ISO, and opens in Win 10 Pro. Have had the same problem when burning other ISO files. Is there a protocol I'm failing to follow? Basically, I download the ISO file, then do a copy/paste to the DVD-R drive. That's it! Help appreciated Jim S.

    No, that's not it. You can't just merely copy an ISO as a data file.

    Look at the UBCD5 Guide for the info about burning an ISO to disc. You could also create a bootable flash drive (Post #2)

    I use CDBurnerXP to burn ISO's. It's a different process than just copy/paste/burning files.

    It's free.

    Got the Free ISO burner utility, and all's well. Thanks to all. Simple, which is what I need at this point in life, SIMPLE. Grew a little at this site. Always do. Thanks, Jim S.
