A file of data which represents an image.
An image file contains all the files you want to load onto the reader's drive C. Because drive C is a ROM drive that is implemented in flash memory, you can use DOS commands to read from drive C, but you must use special utilities to write to drive C.

An image file is used to store an exact replica of a specific set of data on some type of disk drive or in computer RAM. For example: One might keep an "image" of a particular floppy disk stored on a hard drive so it can be retrieved at a later date. The procedure for retrieval usually involves running some software that recreates the image of the original floppy disk on a new disk. Image files are also frequently used with CD writers to prepare data to be written to a CD. In this case all of the desired files are copied into an "image" of the CD that is on a hard drive. Once ready, this image can quickly be written to the recordable CD. Sometimes this procedure is required in order to be able to write a suitable CD, but this will vary upon the software and hardware being used.
