| Free/Open Source CD Writer
I am in the process of installing Linux Ubuntu in my machine but I don't have a CD writer that would allow me to burn it. I mean, I have Nero but I disliked this product so much that ended up uninstalling it.
So what are the best free products out there.
Thx  |

You want to burn an installation disk in Windows, in order to install Ubuntu, right?
So you're going to need a Windows program. I'd say you could try any of the alternatives suggested by Kilroy  . In fact, I don't suppose that many of us over here have a lot of knowledge about CD burning software for Windows...
While I can understand your desire to find freeware for this task, and presumably some of Kilroy 's suggestions are freeware, I don't know that it's worth trying to find actual free software (I mean, open-source type software) just to burn a CD on Windows...I don't know that there is anything like that, actually, but maybe someone else does. |

If you have XP go with ISO Recorder.
It does exactly what it says and that is all it does.
I have also tried DeepBurner with no problems. |

For less than $10, you can buy the CDs ready made and go from there.

Re: Free/Open Source CD Writer
I have used nothing but Nero for years. Love it. You could always just install it long enought to burn the disc, and then erase it... |

CDBurner XP Pro works flawlessly. It is freeware and is what I install on any Winders machine I come across that needs burning software. I highly recommend it.

Windows won't do an ISO without special software. There is an ISO burner out there, but it is easier just to grab deep burner, and go.
