By the way, the main subject of this topic is not how to read an ISO file, but how to write an ISO file;
Well, I used to think some years ago that the only good software for CD burning and ISO stuff was Nero, but it's not free and on this forum I've found out about CDBurnerXP which is really good for doing stuff with your files, as I understand you need to create iso files? or edit them by adding stuff, I think it is possible with CDBurnerXP, it's freeware and does the job well.
http://cdburnerxp.se by the way, even though it sounds like it's for Windows XP, but it works quite well with Windows Vista too 
I didn't know you could alter ISO's with CDBurnerXP
 What you could try is mounting the ISO file use daemon tools, create a new (empty) iso, copy all the file from the virtual drive and add the files you want.

It's still the same problem : you need a tool able to create the empty iso, and able to add files to that iso.
I also used to use WinISO but now I use an unusual alternative, WinRAR (http://www.rarlab.com/). WinRAR is not free but you can use the unlicensed version basically forever with only a nag screen. If you are not familiar with WinRAR then you should give it a look because it is the best archive software period. Several versions ago they added ISO support and now it’s what I use to modify and extract ISO’s.

I gave it a try, doesn't work. winrar is able to open an iso file, and extract some parts or extract everything, but cannot add a file to an iso. Even a registered version cannot do that.
You can try this, but its'nt free

I think I was thinking the wrong way. Probably the best way is to put all my files in a temporary folder, let's say c:\mycdtemp, and use mkisofs (the windows or the linux version) to create the final iso. A kind of step-by-step for having the binaries and a working syntax is here : http://www.g-loaded.eu/2007/04/25/how-to-c...d-with-mkisofs/ Of course, my goal is to create a multiple-linux bootable cd, and not to create a "windows bootable cd", but the principle of using mkisofs and the syntax provided makes sense : QUOTE mkisofs \ -b cdboot/msboot.img -no-emul-boot -boot-load-seg 1984 -boot-load-size 4 \ -iso-level 2 -J -l -D -N -joliet-long -relaxed-filenames \ -V "WINSP" \ -o ../winsp.iso . So, no need to modify an existing iso, when working that way the goal is to start from a folder and create an iso having that folder. Any further modifications will be simply add files to that original folder and re-create the iso file using the same syntax, and burn to CD, or test it with an emulated machine.
I'm not sure if you have solved the problem yet but I use InfraRecorder to edit/burn ISO to CDs and DVDs. If you still are having trouble you may want to try it, though I am unsure if it is capable of doing everything you need. It only works for windows I think, but I have gotten it to run on Linux using wine (I have never actually tried burning an ISO on Linux though). It is free, so that shouldn't be a problem. There is a lot of documentation and many tutorials online on how to use it, so just use Google if you need help.
Hope this helps, Sparkx Links: InfraRecoder
Personally, I would just use DAEMON Tools Lite to mount my current ISO which I wanted to edit, and would create a new ISO with my wanted extra files by putting them from the mounted disk and would save the new ISO file somewhere on my hard disk or just would burn the CD with that ISO files. Seems like an altering an ISO file method for me.

You don't need to buy a CD emulation software. You can use the virtual CD driver from Microsoft, I'm very satisfied with it. You find it here : http://download.microsoft.com/download/7/b...rolpanel_21.exe It even does not spoil your system. You copy it to somewhere on your PC. You start the driver, you choose a drive letter, you open the ISO file, and the iso file is seen as a CD reader. When you don't need it any more, you stop dismount the ISO file, you stop the driver, that's all.
Another software to try/buy if you have the money is. CD Clone/DVD Clone. This software is like a legend when it comes to burning anything under the sun. Is was originally created by Elaborate Bytes, but the product now sells under SlySoft.
In the earlier days when there was limited knowledge on copying, copyrights, and copy protection, the software was able to burn images with with similar optical defects, like copy protection. It was not until recently, when a client of my needed to do some backup recording in CD+G (the Karaoke format). We tried a couple burners with no success other software suites. We then tried CD Clone, made some custom settings, burned at a slower rate. Success. Upon further research we found CD+G rely on the recorded sub channel data to show video information while the audio track is playing. If you have approx 47.00 USD and are tired of the limitations of OEM/bundled recording software, give CD Clone a try.
