Default Nero - Burn ISO but resulting CD is empty

Hello all, my 1st post here.

I have burned an ISO image with Nero.
After that I insert the CD. WindowsXP opens it and displays a window
with no icons.

How can I check what is being wrong?

Thanks!
Xavi.

Don't take this as advice but as my personal experience, okay? I was
using Burn4Free and
kept having that same problem. I finally tried slowing down the speed
to a really slow speed
and got perfect results. I kept increasing the 'x' speed till I
repeated the disk full but nothing
showing result, then decreased the speed.
BTW, I made some really attractive mobiles from those disks. At least
they didn't go to
complete waste.

(repeated the disk full but nothing showing result, _then decreased the
speed. ")

After writing to the disk at a higher speed, I would check it with
'explorer' and it
showed nothing on the disk, even though the disk showed zero free space.
I started out writing at 24x and found thru trial and error that I could
only write at 8x and
get a successful write. Hence the many cd's that are used as a mobile.

Default Solved - Was: Nero - Burn ISO but resulting CD is empty

Hi, Planer, thanks. I already tested with the lowest speed before
posting and still failed.
Hi, Smh, thanks. I checked and it was properly selected. In fact when
burning a data CD "from files" instead from an image works.

I finally decided to try ImgBurn, which is free, and the very same
image file that Nero was unable to burn, at the maximum speed was
perfectly burned by ImgBurn.

Thanks to all.
Xavi.
