Above is a link that takes you through it, including getting ImgBurn.
I know nothing about DVD Fab, so don't know where you went wrong.
It is possible there is an ISO file inside that 7 zip file. You'd have to unzip it to find out. If it is an ISO inside, then all you'd have to do is burn that ISO to a disc.
Then of course confirm that it will in fact boot your PC and begin the install procedure.

If you just want a copy of the disc, just do a disc (DVD) copy. There is no need to save it as an iso and then burn the iso.

You have .iso files associated with 7zip in Control Panel>Defaults which is why it's showing as a 7Zip file. It probably will change to ImgBurn association when you install that. You can ignore that and just store it without regard to its association, then when ready to burn it to DVD load it into ImgBurn, or burn to disk or write to flash stick using Windows 7 USB-DVD Download Tool
Hi.Sorry to hijack this posting.
Can I ask mike009 a question regarding his input.That image you had,How would I get into that settings in 7zip.??.As I have been having a similar issue with the 7zip.
Thanks.
