????
You dont have to change the .nes in the filename, or even make the CD images.
I think the readme for NesterDC tells you how to make the disk. I beleive you just make a disk with all the roms in it on the root directory. I dont think you have to have the disk any special way. I could be wrong though. I have all mine on the same disk.
Check the tutorials on the DCEmu site.

You do need to extract the files from the Zip archive in which you originally downloaded them. Then, you can put them in any directory you want. Then, just burn the disc as a normal data disc (it can even be a multisession disc, I believe). There is nothing special you have to do to burn a rom disc for Nester. You can locate Roms in any directory whatsoever while using Nester.

If you change the .nes extension you'll corrupt the file and make it unusable. Extract your roms to the games folder or to your separate CD using Win Zip or WINRAR. Don't you dare touch the .nes extension.
