Forum: UltraISO Topic: 733MB ISO file started by: MegaThunder Posted by MegaThunder on Nov. 21 2004,16:09
Hello Forum, I have downloaded an ISO file that is 733 MB in size, my simple question is how do I burn it so it will fit in a normal CD??Why the ISO file is originaly like that?? I have seen many BIN,ISO ect, files like that. Do we have to burn it in a dvd format??? Thanks. Posted by midas on Nov. 21 2004,18:49
You will probably be safe burning it to a normal CD, as most are 703MB for max safe size, but overburning is usually safe, 30 MB ought to not be a problem.BIN/CUE images include usually unneeded information, and usually can be converted to an ISO image file which saves about 16% space. Also, if you have problems overburning that CD (use the verify written data feature), go and buy some 800 or 870 MB CD's, they are out there and only a tad more expensive (they are basically 703MB CD's that have been proven safe to burn to larger amounts) I am not sure if the included NeroBurn utility with UltraISO includes the ability to overburn but worth a try. |
