trying install vista dvd start install

After burning Vista 32 bit onto a DVD, I reinsert the DVD into my laptop (I.E. 7). The disc starts to rotate for about 30 seconds and then stops. I can't start the install process from the run menu either. Nothing show s up under programs. Under "All Files" I see "D:\vista_5384.4.060518-1455_winmain_beta2_x86fre_client-LB2CFRE_EN_DVD.iso". What is the proble and what do I do to install Vista?

You need to burn the ISO using a program like Nero or Roxio. The ISO is an image file. Nero or Roxio decontructs the file system and rebuilds it onto a DVD, giving you all the files within the ISO and making the DVD bootable.
