      Exactly ^^ which windows OS? By default Windows hasn't had an ISO burner (unless Windows 8 does). But you can download and install one.

        You can burn ISO's with windows 7 and 8. However, I don't think they will be bootable. That's why I've always used infrarecorder.

          It will be bootable from that utility.
          I guess I was thinking about the Vista/XP days - that same tool was available as a download from MS. Looks like it was included with Windows 7.

            Windows 8. The standard disc burner it comes with is just not functioning properly.

              I'm trying to burn a bootable Citrix program to a disc in ISO form.

                Haven't played with that functionality in Windows 8. Define "not functioning properly."

                              There is a quick and easy way to test the ISO file in Windows 8.

                              Double click the iso and try to mount it. It should mount on a new virtual DVD Drive. If it give you an error about the file being corrupt, try to re-download

                                  Could be a bad iso.

                                      More details please. Did an ISO disk get burned? Did it boot? What errors are you getting?

                                        If you mount the CD in a VM, does it boot ok then?

                                          Good idea, test first the ISO then the CD itself that way.

                                            This alot simpler of an issue than you're all assuming. It's either a bad ISO or the burning program didn't work correctly. When it's booted of the disk, it literally lists thousands of errors. It goes through every folder, subfolder, application, and exstension file and says it's not able to be booted from. So far as I know, I don't have a VM to test it on. I have adecently beefy PC to run one on if that's a suggestion.
