How do you burn an ISO image to DVD on Vista?

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?

Terrabyte Unlimited's Burncdcc works very well and it is only 50 kb and does
not require installation.

Most DVD burners come with light versions of Nero or Roxio. Either one will
do it. If your burner was in your PC when you bought it from Dell or HP,
then you're probably out of luck. You'll have to buy one of them - or
something else - to do the job.

A veritable potpourri of free ISO-burning software!

I learned about ISO Recorder (
http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm ) the other day.
It's free. I gave it a try and it worked well.

But personally, there's nothing like all-around DVD/CD burning
software.

The two biggies are Roxio Easy Media Creator or my personal fave, Nero
Ultra Edition.

The most current releases from both Nero and Roxio are Vista
Compatible and you can try each free for 30 days.

I tried deepburner portable today. Worked excellently and
didn't require installation.
