don't know if you will understand this but if you are using nero 7 I just
burned burnt to dvd using the udf not iso format worked for me.

Use 'burn Image' rather than copying the file to DVD. I don't have a copy of
nero to hand bit I think its under the recorder menu.

Good Luck

The file you download is an electronic image of a physical dvd. All you
want to do is transfer it back to a physical dvd again. The image is
already bootable so the dvd will be too after you transfer. You don't do
anything to the image but transfer it. The transfer process is called "burn
image to disc" in most burn programs.

Hi Dale
I have Nero 7. It is really easy.
Open Nero Burning ROM
Click on file (upper left)
Browse for place you downloaded iso file.
Open
You will see the gold disk in the left hand column say Disk Image.
Click burn at bottom of screen.

That's it

In fact, if one is using Nero, all one has to do is
1) double-click on the downloaded ISO from Microsoft. Nero will
start, and auto-mount the ISO, and add the folders to a new burn
project.
2) Make sure the project type is "DVD", and the file format is "UDF"
(NOT "Joliette" -- these are all "CD" formats, not "DVD" formats).
3) Make sure the burn speed is set to no higher than 2X (if you have a
quality DVD burner) or 1X (if your DVD burner isn't that great.)
4) Then click on "Burn" (I would also check the "Validate data"
checkbox as soon as the burn starts -- set it as a permanent option in
whatever burn software you have, if it is available).
