You don't want to open it or just copy the ISO to a disk, you need to burn it as an image. In Nero, it's called "Burn image to disk" and a bootable CD is created. Make certain you have "Cool 'n' Quiet" enabled in the bios before you start.

You can download a trial version from
http://www.nero.com/en/nero-up.php if you dont already have it

or you can use alcohol 120%
i prefer alcohol for error corection and overburns, but nero is in itself an awesome program, with just a few less options

I think the latest version of nero now supports over burns, not sure something i read i think, but alcohol is good hic, i mean a good program
