Open a terminal in the directory containing the .iso image you are trying to burn, run this command and post the output here plz:
Code:
fdisk -l <name of .iso image file>

There is nothing in the .iso file -- the download failed.

a question
is that an illegal bootleg copy of win7 pro.

if you really need windows
then call Microsoft support on the telephone
they will email you a link
BUT
you will NEED the key you bought ( or the one on the orange sticker on the computer original owner ONLY )

garbing a Windows iso from a random site on the web is
well ASKING FOR PROBLEMS

The iso's are still available at digitalriver & they are legal. The OP needs to be awre that there a few types of iso's, 1 is the full bootable iso & the other needs 2 control files & to moved to a folder. The 2 files are "install.wim & boot.wim
