Default ERD Commander Boot CD?

I've got the 2007 Commander in a RAR file (45mb), when I unpack it it creates a file that the system seems to recognise as another RAR file albeit 145mb now.
The file name in the unpacked file has (ISO) in the title.

I thought all I had to do was to copy the unpacked ISO to a blank CD and it would then be bootable as machine boots up?

I've tried this but it doesn't recognise the CD when booting - the bios is set to boot first from the CD.

The unpacked file (145mb with (ISO) in the title) doesn't look right that windows explorer thinks it's another RAR folder? and not a file with an ISO extension.

Anyone shen any light on this?

are you burning the CD as an image or data disk? The former would be needed. File should be an ISO that you are trying to burn i.e image.iso

have you associated image files with Winrar
