Aparently, it does it correctly (burns the image, doesnt just create a data cd containing the big ISO file) by default. A quick search on www.download.com turns it up. Hope that helps. He had trouble with the Adaptec tool as well. I dunno, I've never used either, but he said Nero worked like a charm.
