I am planing buying this program but I'm not sure if it will work for me. I have a dvd disc and I have created an image of this but I want to convert this image into seperate images so it can fit on cd's each one them..... This is because I don't have a dvd burner so the image I have on approxmately 2.Gb does not fit on any cd... Is this possible with this program or is it just possible to make one dvd image of a couple of cd images?

There is no direct action, but you can do it this way:
1) Open your DVD image
2) Delete some folders from it, so it can fit in one CD-R disc
3) Use 'Save As' to get your first ISO CD image
4) Repeat step 2-3 and get your second and third ISO
5) Burn the three ISOs

Okey, thanks for the help.

I was just wondering if all the original files will fit on the three cd's if you delete some folders from the original image? I'm a bit unaware if it will work... It's because I want to make a backup of of a pcgame from dvd on the cd's... Will the game still it be able to install if I put it on the three cd's?

Not sure. You can emulate these images by SoftDisc first.

This might not be what you're looking for, but you could try using WinRAR and creating a 3 part archive of the image and place each one on a cd.  Then you can extract them back to the hard drive and open with whatever Virtual cd program (I use SoftDisc myself) you're using to install.
I know it works as I've done it myself
