I have an ISO-9660 image file (about 3GB, exact representation of the
original installation media, including the content and the logical
format). Does Vista have a capability to write it to a blank DVD-R
resulting in an identical copy of the original DVD including file
name
and volume label information? The default Burn utility in Vista
just writes this file as a file and not as an image of the whole
disk.
Does Vista provide such a utility at all?
Do I have to look for an external program to do this simple task?

You have to look for an external program ..........Nero

No, Vista doesn't have the tools for it.
