Oh dear!  You don't want to extract the iso to a folder and then burn it to a
CD.  If you do, the CD won't be bootable.  There is a special boot image written
to a reserved sector on the CD that makes it bootable.  Simply copying and
pasting the files to the CD won't copy that image as far as I know.  You will
need to burn the iso directly.  But also note that when you burn the iso to the
CD, you need to be sure you have files and directories on the CD rather than a
single iso file.  Most CD burning software will burn the iso correctly, but it
is still wise to check to be sure it's correct.

HTH,
Lorenzo
