I've just googled your problem. Perhaps you had burning problems that weren't recognized. Try a slower burning speed like 8x or slower.

Of course, and this is a common error, make shure you burn the iso as an disk image and not as a file.

Well, I think I'll never return to windows again. I've been using Linux for several years now.
It has more possibilities than windows (e.g. pipelining) and it's free.
Nevertheless, even Ubuntu seems to be full of bugs, mostly less harmful than those of Windows,
sometimes even more - and Linux has no warranty!
Also, you sometimes need the console, and windows users are not familiar to this. If you want to
have a only-click-gui, windows is better.

Get your own opinion and if you have other questions: Open another topic. You marked your (first) question as solved, as it is, and almost noone willl view this to help again. It's a rule in here: Open a new topic for each new question you have.
