That means, You did NOT burn an ISO, but copy the iso files to a
"normal" CDR with a file system.
If You use Nero, try the following:
- Cancel _ALL_ actions, Nero wants to take
- Go to the menu "Recorder"
- Choose "burn iso" (or "ISO brennen" in the german version)
- select the iso in the box
- GO!
That should fix Your Problem.
