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

So what the hell am I supposed to do?

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.

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.

So it is not actually more than 700mb. And the previous cd-r's

Unbranded · Premium Grade "A" · 80min / 730mb (700mb data

Still 700mb.

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...

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.
