[solid647]

im a newb and i guess u all were so please help me

[toddiscool]

Well first of all, if you only know how to get your files via my media in K-lite than this may be outta your league, however we all were newbies so first thing is to learn about what you are doing. We well help but since this has been posted so many times, it is unlikley to find someone to hold your hand a walk you throguh everything. Read up by searching google or this forum on how to do the specifics of the condensed version found Here (http://www.klboard.ath.cx/bb/index.php?showtopic=12710&hl=\.bin)
there are many variations on this but if you do not know how to open you shared folder this is probably a littl e to heavy for you.
It seem so easy to us all here now, but if you do not have some basics it aint gonna happen.

who doesnt know how to open my shared folder its a baby thing a know that kind of stuff i just need help choosing software to burn the game on and how to convert files.

[solid647]

ok i got NERO 5.5.9.0 and got battlefield 1942 in a file called Battlefiel_1942-CD1.ISO and opened NERO it asked me what i want to burn and i put image then i chose the file from my shared folder and it started burning it finished really fast like in a minute and it set burn succesfull and it created a save for a file image
i took out the disk out of the cd-r and put it into the cd rom drive but nothing happens when i put it in what am i suppose to do now? do i have to do something with that image i saved?

[solid647]

Browse the cd by going to my computer > right click the cd drive the burnt cd is in > click explore.

Is it full of stuff? (I'm not exactly a professional at this ;))

[solid647]

Is it full of stuff?

yes it is it has the files i was copying or at least trying called:

BATTLEFIELD1942(which i named)
IMAGE(also i named)

those are what are in there




p.s. i tried like 20 times at least and i *@!*&*@ getting frustrated and i wasted like 15 cd-r's from sony which cost me alot for what i make


NOTHING!!!!

[gbfan]

Okay dude so I don't know what you did to get the two files on the cd, but you said you had a .iso file that you dl'ed right. Well open nero and then immediately close the wizard that opens to "help" you. Now goto File-->Burn Image Then select the .iso that you dl'ed. Then burn it now this should be the only file on the cd and when you put it in as long as you have autorun enabled it should start the install process. Now if it is not a .iso post back with what type of file it is and I will try and help if I can. :D

[solid647]

o.k. ill put every exact thing i do and you see what im doing wrong


I go to start and click on it i choose NERO-burning rom
it opens NERO and what opens is a window called NERO burning rom
and two others open one called "New Compilation"
and another called "File Browser"
in the window called "New compilation" there are a list of what you want to burn they are on the left hand side of the screen and are in this order

"CD-ROM(ISO)
Audio CD
Mixed Mode CD
CD extra
CD Copy
Video-CD
Super Video CD
CD-ROM (boot)
CD-ROM (hybird)
CD-ROM(UDF)CD-ROM (UDF/ISO) "




I have CD-ROM (ISO) highlighted or you could call it grayed out
on the top of this window it has tabs in this order"INFO/MULTISESSION/ISO/LABEL/DATES/MISC./BURN
all the way on the right it says "NEW
CANCEL
WIZARD"


OK i press "NEW"
OK on the other screen i talked about called "File Browser"
i find My shared folder
and find the file im trying to get burned which is "Battlefield_1942-CD1.ISO"
i drag it from the File browser to the box that thing when i pressed NEW made
i click on file and then burn image
the screen Write CD comes out and the image i chose is there
i press on "Wite"
a new window comes up and it says "Save image file"
i choose "CD drve F" which is my DVD-rw/CD-RW drive
i click on save
it starts burning or so it says
it says its burning a CD-Image and its size is 630MB
when its done it says "Burn Process Succesfully Completed"
i take out the CD-R and put it in the CD-ROM drive
i go to my computer click on CD-rom drive and it says please insert a cd.................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

[gbfan]

No No No I think you're doing way too much I'm no expert though but this is how I do it. Open nero, immediately close the new compilation window. Now in the nero burning rom window goto File-->Burn Image. after you click on Burn Image the litte file browser window opens, now choose the .iso that you want to burn then click open then click burn. This is how I do it.

[solid647]

hey after ur done downloading the file what comes up like in that window that says it was completed succesfully?

[solid647]

and when you press burn image and choose it where do you save image on when it asks?

[solid647]

when ur done do you put it in cd rom drive or leave it where it is
the disc?
because i did what you said but i left it in cd rw drive and when i open it, it has two files in it battlefield 1942 the one i name and a one called image
when you open yours what does it say?

[solid647]

when i go to recorder and press medium info....
and choose driver disc is in it says "no medium inserted or drive not ready, please try again"

[gbfan]

If the disc is in your drive and it says that there isn't anything in there. Then that is something wrong with your drive or something. But as far as after I burn it I don't open it. I just put it in and wait for the Install screen to open. As long as you have autorun enabled and everything went right it should run automatically.

[solid647]

man fuck this this is fuck up forget it!!!!!!!!!!!! :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :

[solid647]
