With versions of Microsoft Windows prior to Windows 7 it has always been necessary to install a small (or sometimes not so small program) to provide the ability to burn CD’s or DVD’s from ISO images.
Microsoft have now finally fixed this in Windows 7, and have actually made it incredibly simple to do.
Simply double click the ISO file that you wish to burn to CD / DVD and you will be presented with a dialog box asking which drive you wish to use. Select the drive with your blank disk, click ‘Burn’, and wait for the drive to do its stuff, and hey presto, one complete CD / DVD.
