ohh alright, would there be a way to keep it loaded?

Yes. If you mount it, it is only active when the OS is loaded. Restarting your computer would clear it.

ohhh okay

so mounting the iso will just let me view the files on the cd?

Its not going to allow you to run the ISO when you reboot.

You will need to burn it for that.

But for instance, if you mount a DVD ISO, you would save yourself time by not having to burn the movie, but you could still watch it.
