This post explains how to burn an .iso file to CD on Windows XP using the command line. For example, you might want to create a Linux install CD.
Firstly you need to download the "Windows Server 2003 Resource Kit Tools" from Microsoft. Despite the name, it does support Windows XP.
Download the .exe and it will install using the normal Windows-style installer.
After that you have a command called cdburn and one called dvdburn.
Simply:
cdburn .. Destination .. Path to .iso file.
So if the .iso file is in the current directory and if your cd-drive is E: then something like this should do the trick:
cdburn E: linux-distro-2006.iso
The default speed seems a bit slow. You may want to speed things up a bit:
cdburn E: linux-distro-2006.iso -speed max
For other options you can type "cdburn" without any arguments to get a little man page.
Here is it in action: (click to enlarge):

<p>Stumbled across your blog today, looks interesting. Nice info on the command
line approach to .iso burning -- hadn't seen that before and I've been doing
more of that lately.</p>
<p>Did a little quick searching of your site and found no mention of Take
Command or 4NT, some alternative Windows command line shells from JP Software
(<a href="http://www.jpsoft.com" rel="nofollow">www.jpsoft.com</a>). I suspect you might find them of interest -- they're very
powerful.</p>
<p>Thank You</p>
