An iso image is a special file which is understood by the cd-writing 
software. An iso file itself is non-bootable .
I assume that you have some sort of CD burning software already installed on 
your win$ows m/c. Search for a menu item 'Create CD from image' (in adaptec 
cd creator it's in the file menu). From the CD image type select iso and 
select the iso file you downloded. Then just burn it as you would normally 
do. The software will 'explode' the iso image into respective directories and 
files before writing it to your CD. Once writing finishes, you are left with 
a bootable CD.
