Did you burn the ISO using to correct format, or did you simply burn it into a CD like a normal file?You must use the Burn ISO function in your CD writing software.
After you burn the CD, if you read the CD from other computer, you shouild see a lot of files and directories, and not just a single file with the iso extension.

You computer is sick, throw away... hahaha. Sorry just joking. Your ISO file is not formatted to be linux file format, maybe you burned them on windows format. So.. check again...
