Windows Won't Burn Discs.
-
So I'm attempting to burn an ISO to a disc, and Windows just won't do it. Any suggestions on clients or workarounds to use?

@Mike-Ralston Loyal user of Infrarecorder:
http://infrarecorder.org/They have a portable version too!
-
@Mike-Ralston There is an application called Free ISO burner that you can download here.
-
Is it that it won't burn at all? That you are missing a tool to do the burning? That it burns but the burns are no good?
Which OS?
-
Exactly ^^ which windows OS? By default Windows hasn't had an ISO burner (unless Windows 8 does). But you can download and install one.
-
You can burn ISO's with windows 7 and 8. However, I don't think they will be bootable. That's why I've always used infrarecorder.

It will be bootable from that utility.
I guess I was thinking about the Vista/XP days - that same tool was available as a download from MS. Looks like it was included with Windows 7. -
Windows 8. The standard disc burner it comes with is just not functioning properly.

I'm trying to burn a bootable Citrix program to a disc in ISO form.

Haven't played with that functionality in Windows 8. Define "not functioning properly."

What Citrix product is that?

Actually if you specifically ask them, you can get an 8 Shot at Starbucks.

There is a quick and easy way to test the ISO file in Windows 8.
Double click the iso and try to mount it. It should mount on a new virtual DVD Drive. If it give you an error about the file being corrupt, try to re-download

Hmm so I've tried your guys suggestions and the server is giving me tons of errors...

Could be a bad iso.

May be, I'll try some other sources.
