ISO image from backup folder directly???

[taken]

hi,

can anyone guide me to make an ISO files of all my software backups i have in my HDD. i am using nero 6. i know that when one writes the contents in CD in NERO 6.0 then at the end of session it asks to save the file which is an ISO file, but i just dont want to make CD's just to make an ISO image of the same. is there a direct way to convert it to an ISO file using NERO or say any other S/W.

well, to it more, i have made image drive (just exprementing). i just wanted to know what it is and is it useful in the process of ISO making?
