    Ok I know I'm probally going to sound like an idiot. But that's ok, I'm a blonde. Is there a way to convert a zipped .exe file into a .iso file and burn it? I have WinISO and Nero 5.5. If that helps any..

    If its a zipped EXE just run the EXE to extract the contents... you may find a BIN/CUE or ISO after you extract it. Otherwise, just burn as a DataCD or something. :)

    If It's a zipped file (just ZIP), if you open it with Notepad (make 'File'-->'Open' and write exaxctly the name of the file you want to test, because by default Notpad opens only the files which have a .TXT extension), you should see something like:
    [bold]
    PK
    в, aps098/lib/PK
    [/bold]
    or:
    [bold]
    MZ?   ÿÿ ¸ @ È º ´ Í!¸LÍ!This program cannot be run in DOS mode
    [/bold]
    If it'a a self-executable EXE made with Winzip.

    What does it appear if you do so?
