Windows XP Application (.exe) image burn to cd-r instructions

[Kay Kha]

I have a Windows XP installation image in Application (.exe) format. I want to burn to a CD-R disc so I can install it on my other pc. Do I burn it to the CD-R disc in its 5.21MB Application (.exe) format as it is, or do I open or unzip it before burning to CD-R disc?
