things I would check: 1. Is this DVD-/+R or RW media you are trying to copy 2. Does the ISO image contain valid data 3. Does it fail on every type of media or just some. 4.Is your writer firmware uptodate for the media? If it is DVD+R media you could try bitsetting it to DVD-ROM if your writer allows through Nero. Also try DVD-R media if you are using DVD+R and see if that helps. I would also make the firmware revision as uptodate as possible to allow best support from the drive. If all this fails then there is something very definetly wrong. I would recomend to use Verbatim or Taiyo Yuden media for the first couple of burns whilst testing as they have the best support from writers IMO. You could also check that the ISO file contains both a VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS folder as a lot of older DVD players insist on these being on the DVD b4 allowing playback.

Thanks for all the info, but woudl appear that the file was originally a .bin file -yeah! would of been nice for the guy (who i got it off) to tell me! lol anyway so that meant it was VCD files contained within it, so i simply ran isobuster and extracted the.Dat file. and tada i have it in avi form now, im so pleased!! thanks for the very useful tips though, its always best to know what im doing before i do it lol Thanks
