One common problem among people who haven't done this before is that you 
may be burning the ISO onto the CD as a file, rather than an image. 
Forgive me if this is not the case, it's not clear from your message. 
When burning an ISO image, you normally have to select a special command 
to transfer the image, rather than just copy the file onto the CD.

When you put those CD's into CD-rom drive on a working computer, what do 
you see? Do you see a single file named *.iso? Or do you see a whole 
bunch of files and directories?
