Just start up Nero Express; then you will get a window in which you can 
choose 'Disc Image or Saved Project'.
When you click on that option, you can choose the location of the .iso file.

Did you ftp the .iso file? Then first try thru _http_ and process the above.

That you burn your iso on a Windows machine has nothing to do with the 
problem.
