Alright well I have HL2, by Vengeance, and they claim that they have made their own installer that applies all patches and cracks that are required fixing the game. And they have convieniently divided the RARs into "CD's" or folders that say "CD1", "CD2", etc. However, the first few ISO's that I unrared, are 731 MBS. That is 31 MBS over any CD-R limit. How could I fit these ISO's onto a CD-R? I don think overburning would work here. And burning each ISO to a DVD seems like such a waste?
cd-rs go to 800 mb
edit: i think anyways.
i think if you write that to disc anyway it'll end up being about 650 mb and wont even fill the disc:unsure:
Haha, what the hell brand are you using?
There is no brand of CD-R that has a 800mb capacity, unless you mean by overburning.
i got one in my hand thats 730, discplanet one

I know how to burn ISO's, but thanks anyways.Quote:

I have 700mb cd-r's. And I apologise about the MB mishap, although that is probably one of only a handful of brands. And the only way those CD's work is by overburning, which not all CD-Players/Writers support.
So it is not actually more than 700mb. And the previous cd-r'sQuote:
For high capacity CD-R (90 minutes & 99 minutes) recording, you should need CD-Recorder that must supports oversize
CD-Recording along-with writing software, which also must have over burn facility.
This guide explain how to proceed using AHEAD’s NERO BURNING ROM.
Still 700mb.Quote:
Unbranded · Premium Grade "A" · 80min / 730mb (700mb data
Since an iso is IMAGE file you can burn more than 700 mb of it on a 700 mb cd-r since its an IMAGE file without overburn (eg. iso, bin, cue ) and i use nero. I was able to burn a 750 mb bin/cue file on a cd-r without overburn...
just dl the DVD version on it, then burn it to dvd, im dling it right now:D
Really? Could I do this with Alcohol 120%? Or should I get nero?
burning iso's is best with nero.
Alright, well I dont have the cash to buy any DVD's right now, I might get some for xmas, but right now I just want to back up this sweet-ass version of HL 2. So to burn the 731MB image to a 700MB disc I would use NERO? And I wouldnt need to overburn?
This link explains why cd images are larger than blank cd's

Alright, well can I use Sonic: RecordNow? I have used that to burn ISO's pretty well, I just burn as a DATA DISC and it burns the ISO's just as Alcohol 120% would. Would it work even though it says that the CD is 25mb over capacity?
Id go with nero.
Alright, can anyone PM a torrent link for NERO?

Oh, btw, been meaning to ask...what do you actually "manage", Mr Board Manager? The only thing I've seen you "manage" is to ask a few stupid questions :)
:) I believe that the tags you used "<sarcasm></sarcasm>" cease to work! :rolleyes:
And why did you send me a link for the NERO site?
Indeed. We should have stayed on ipb imo :DQuote:

Nero is good for burning the cd image, but why don't you just use alcohol 120 to mount it and install from the hardrive. It would be alot quicker and you wouldn't use any cd's.
free version doesnt come with all the features , and no offense but, do you know what suprnova.org is ?Quote:

What's the point of warezing something you can get from the actual developers?
No it isnt a paradox, i'm serious. Anyways you can find the latest/retail version of Nero burning rom at suprnova.org , and just about any/most retail version of a program on there.Quote:

If the free version of Nero lacks some features thats the reason to "warezing".
If there'sa naggin screen and/or 30day trial thats another reason for teh "warezing".
I dont know as i've downed the cracked versions with torrents a looong time.
So im just guessing here.
:D
Why warez it when you can get it from the devs?Quote:

The reason to warez something rather than get a trial from the actual devlopers is usually because most developers leave out some of the good features, and of course it isnt free if you are looking for the whole thing . And I really don't unserstand the protocol issue of BT , but anyways BT works excellent for me. So my 2 cents :blushing:Quote:

Why get it from Dev if you can get it cracked?Quote:

Because it doesn't need cracked :)Quote:

Actually, I got the Extras for the Nero, all I need is to update Nero itself,
which I think its not needed in every minor release. They're just updating
for more CD/DVD rom support and unsupport for someserials, perhaps.
And, I got me a legit 5.5 version which im a bout to install next time im
re-installing teh XP. I've heard ppl complaing their burned DVD fails with
some nero 6.xx programs. i want to see if the 5.5 works betteralso because my
dvd-rw has some difficulties also.
:D
Either way. We're both are right, right?
:P
