Tou check your CD after you've burned it, mount it into your filesystem 
and view its contents. If you view the CD and actually see your ISO file, 
the CD hasn't been burned correctly. When you ciew the contents of a CD 
properly burned from an ISO image you should see all the files and 
directory structures 'inside' the ISO on the CD, not the ISO image itself.

I have no idea how to burn an ISO in wDOS. Some people use NERO I guess? 
Might want to take that question to a win32 help list. Also, just out of 
curiosity, why didn't you grab a more recent ISO image?
