I may be misunderstanding your post but ISO files are image files, not data.
Read through this : http://www.petri.co.il/how_to_write_iso_files_to_cd.htm

I think you skipped a step (this is from the link) :

Steps to create a CD if you have installed Nero - Burning ROM:

1.

Download the ISO CD image to a folder on your computer.
2.

Insert a blank CD in your CD-RW drive.
3.

Start Nero Burning.
4.

Follow the wizard steps to select Data CD creation.
5.

When the wizard closes, click Burn Image on the File menu.
6.

In the Open dialog box, select the ISO file, and then click Open.
7.

In the wizard, click Burn to write the image to the CD.

It sounds like you selected Data CD creation and didn't do the rest.

If you use Nero Express, you choose "Disk Image or Saved Project" from the opening menu.
