The FC2).iso is an image, it already contains the boot infromation. So you need to tell Nero (Sorry never used this program) to burn the ISO image to the CD. (As an example, I've used ROXIO (Originally Easy CD Creator), and I only had to double click on the ISO file to brun it to the CD) If you burn the ISO to the CD as a file, it won't work.
