Burn an ISO to CD: Roxio Creator LE-Dell Edition

vikpai · 05-15-2006, 07:32 PM

Hello everyone,

This is my first post on LinuxQuestions, and I am having a problem burning my ISO file from my desktop to a CD. I noticed that there is a discussion posted by Xavier about a similar issue regarding buring an ISO file on a CD using Roxio Easy Creator 5 and Windows 2000 and Windows XP Pro. However the version of Roxio that I have is a newer version that came along with my computer and its called Roxio Creator LE - Dell Edition which does not seem to have a "Record CD from CD Image" option under the file menu. If anybody could suggest on as to how I can work around this problem using my Roxio Creator LE I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks

Must be a special version. You can download one of the many free ISO recorders like isorecorder.

If you ever buy a pre-built computer, I never recommend using the software they throw in. It's usually of a very low quality and has more to do with advertizing than it does with actually buying real software -- consider all of those free AOL subscriptions OEMs ship with their products. Also, Roxio probably let Dell distribute copies of their "Dell Edition" software because it was at a loss with features. Your average Dell buyer isn't burning ISOs, and when they hear "free CD burner!" they think of simply burning songs, pics from grandma's birthday party, et cetera and not file systems.
In fact, PC OEMs tend to preload so much garbage I recommend just totally formatting the hard drive yourself and reinstalling everything with a real copy of Windows, if you know what you're doing (otherwise you should ask somebody who does to do this for you).

Hi. You should should have a burn "track image" option.
This will do just the same.

Or just do a search for "cd record for windows". Someone compiled the normal *nix cdrecord for windows and made it available. Nice thing is it will run without needing to be installed, so you can copy it on a flash drive and plug in anywhere and burn cd's.

Hi Thanks Michael, the ISO recorder seems to work, Jens I dont remember seeing a burn "track image" option, but I will check again and see if that works as well.

Ok,

This is the most cryptic, bizare, way of doing this I have ever seen, but you can do it, (I'm actually burning an ISO to a DVD right now), I'd recommend using isoburner as well, but if you already have Roxio Dell Edition, here's how I was able to make it do it's thing.

1. File --> New Project --> Data --> Create Data Disk
2. Click on the "Make Bootable"
3. Select Bootable image on Hard drive and click browse
4. In the "Files of type" box, select "all file types"
5. Browse to your ISO file and click "Add"
6. Click the big red button to continue

The rest shoud work just like burning any other cd/dvd

Good Luck.

I was unable to burn a DVD ISO iamge of FC6 onto a DVD blank.

I tried every combination of "make bootable" and finally used cdrecord under FC5.

Fedora Core 6 DVD
cdrecord dev=ATA:1,0,0 padsize=63s -pad -dao -v -eject FC-6-i386-DVD.iso

Roxio is a disaster...esp Roxio CD Creator 9.

I couldn't even copy a music CD. Even Roxio CD Creator 7.5 would do that.

I got a message that the drive was in use(screen snapshot available)

I took Roxio CD Creator 9 back for a refund!

Nero came with my new Sony DVD RW and CD RW. Nero worked great in copying the music CD!

Roxio support was a disaster!

I need help with MyDVD Creator on Roxio Dell Edition. When I burn my project on to dvd or computer, an error message appears when it has finished importing audio and video and decoding it, the error message says something about the ratio problem! HELP ME!

landonmkelsey · 03-13-2007, 11:15 AM

Buy Nero...forsake Roxio

jens · 03-13-2007, 11:31 AM

Both suck(Nero even more).
Use whatever you have or something free.
Roxio will do just fine.
As I already mentioned, use "track image"(meant for music CDs).
This does the exact same thing.

Jorophose · 03-13-2007, 12:29 PM

If it doesn't work, you could try CDBurnerXP, it's quite good. (And free

)

hopefully easy media creator 10 (launched today) will be a better product.
info here.

iso recorder and roxio(the one that comes with vista) work well in windows , be it cd or dvd ... i havent(infact , i have forgotten) try iso recoder in vista yet ...

but after you have burned your iso on your disc ... try to do everything in linux ... generally speaking , you only need to burn stuffs in windows system once and no more ...
