No..as the burning is only 90% complete so the DVD data is unreadable now..
u have to burn in a new DVD.

to get a perfect working/readable DVD it must be burned till 100% with Lead-In/Lead Out operation completed

thats why the iso is also not opening in power iso

Burn it anew, no other option. And this time check the "Finalise DIsk" option before burning.

@kiranbhat:what is finalize of DVD...it means no further writing is possible...so its not mandatory to check the finalize option while burning..

ya i know that, but somewhere i read think in google search that movie disks can be readable after finalizing.

Readable after finalizing? Yes of course. All discs ate readable after finalizing. Finalizing doesn't mean that the disc is no longer usable. It just means that you can't burn it again.

or did you mean something else?

err..u r considering it a in wrong way...

we can burn data in DVD in two modes
1) Mutisession 2) No multisession

in multisession u can burn as many times as long as there is space available on DVD...

but in no-multisession u can't burn it again...its a one time burning activity.

so suppose u think that the DVD is fully occupied with data then u put a lock in it so no further writing is possible (i.e no multisession).

thats the main purpose of finalize (putting a stop).

so its not necessary to do the finalizing activity.
Hence,it doesn't mean that finalizing will make the DVD readable..it will be readable also when u successfully complete the burning process.

Ya thats all correct but in nero if i hit the 'disk info' tab then its showing '3track 4folder' found then its readable in another way,
then how cant finalize it like writing a last finalize track.....
