How to burn an NRG file to a disc
NRG is Nero's own image format. Convert it to a standard ISO and cdBurner will burn it to any disc — no Nero required.
Step by step
Connect the burn agent
Open onlinecdburner.com and make sure the burn agent is connected (install it once if needed).
Insert a blank disc big enough for the image
Match the disc to the image size — a CD for small images, a DVD for up to 4.7 GB, a Blu-ray for more.
Choose “ISO image”
Select your converted .iso.
Burn the image
cdBurner writes it sector-for-sector so the disc is bootable/readable exactly as intended. Keep Finalize on.
