Is this DVD you want to burn a bootable one ? I mean the ISO itself ? When you are burning a ISO of some OS into a DVD like linux then it is already bootable. You do not need to make it bootable again via something. Just burn it and start using.

Try this..
Open Nero 7 Data-->Nero Burning rom
Cancel the screen which comes up for "New Compilation"
Go to Menu Recorder --> Burn Image and select your ISO file

I have selected a ISO file but it is showing an error "Sorry, this is not a valid Nero disc image file"

See, if u simply made an image(copy) of a bootable disc, then ur image(.iso) is also bootable.
To Burn it using Nero(all versions).
1. Open Nero Express.
2.Go to Image,Project,Copy and select Disc Image or saved projects.
3. Browse and select ur iso file.
4 Choose a burn speed, I prefer 24X for installation CDs.
when u finish burning , the CD/DVD which u get is bootable.

And Nero does support .iso format...no issues.

And if the .iso which u have is not of a bootable CD, then u need to create a boot sector. But I have never done that , so wont be able to help in that ragard.

Yes Nero supports ISO. The exisiting ISO you have is not bootable as the boot loader is not present in the same. What is it that you want to boot into?

If you have the bootimage then software like Magic ISO can help you create a bootable ISO that you can burn to DVD/CD using Nero or the Magic ISO itself.

The best software i have found is imgburn which was very easy to make a bootable CD/DVD from ISO or img file.
