Paul, tried .BIN (after having to down load a "optional" driver) and no luck on this specific image.  It seems that ImgBurn does not like this specific CD image and thinks .BIN has some specific format.  So unless there is something to bypass this for this particular image it does not seem like it is happy with it.  I do not know if UDI (Univeral Disk Image) will do the trick - have not yet checked)...

Some of these programs try to be too smart for their own good.

Bill.
