ianymaty Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Do you have a disc inserted in the drive? What disc is it, DVD, CD, manufacturer? What it say in the status line at the bottom of the main window? If you take the disc out, is it changing that line? P.S. You should take in consideration upgrading Vista to SP2.

weegie Posted February 25, 2011 Author Share Posted February 25, 2011 forgot to reply to this bit: "What it say in the status line at the bottom of the main window? If you take the disc out, is it changing that line?" ########## the status line says 'ready' and then i take disc out it says 'device not ready - medium not present - tray open' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmalves Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Are you sure what you have is an ISO image? Try opening it with 7-Zip / WinRAR to see if it isn't a compressed archive that contains the disc image inside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
