Well, if you can mount other CDs normally under FreeBSD, then it seems
that even through Windows reads your burned CD without problems, you have
still made some mistakes when burning the CD.

Most likely, you messed something up when using mkisofs. Have a look at
the appropriate man page - there are a lot of options that can be
specified when using mkisofs, and some result in CDs not really being
ISO9660 compliant. That can lead to trouble on some systems while it works
properly on others.
