imgburn doesnt recognize the .img files

[coldpsyco]

im trying to make a repair disk for my laptop and imgburn isn't recognizing the .img file as a supported file format

Does it say "Invalid or unsupported image file format" when you load it in Write mode? How big is it?

[coldpsyco]

thats what it says and its 1.40 mb

That image is supposed to be written to a floppy disk. You can burn it to a bootable CD/DVD:

• in ImgBurn's Build mode, go to the Advanced tab then Bootable Disc tab;
  
• enable Make Image Bootable;
  
• in Emulation Type choose Floppy Disk (1.44 MB);
  
• click the folder icon in the Boot Image field and select your .img file;
  
• click the Write button to burn your bootable disc (use a rewritable disc if you have one).
