Anyone know of a good program to extract ISOs to the hard drive and a good program to burn them?
-
I think you can extract isos with winrar
you can burn isos with nero cd burner or pretty much any good cd burning ap.
-
Now, why would you need to copy and burn ISOs?
-
if i say what i need it for, someone will say "HE"S PROMOTING WAREZ" and i'll get banned for another week and this thread closed.
i just need to know what program to extract and burn ISOs with
-
Can I say it? pretty please? ;7
-
:rolleyes:
You're so flippin' subtle, Stealth. No wonder you got yourself banned.
Anyway, copy/paste works pretty well.

Uhhh, that goes to show you don't understand the concept of an ISO or the difference between an ISO and "copy/paste"
A disk image file (or simply a disk image) is an exact binary copy of an entire disk or drive. Disk image files contain ALL the data stored on the source drive including not only its files and folders but also its boot sectors, file allocation tables, volume attributes and any other system-specific data. Actually, a disk image is not a collection of files or folders but is an exact duplicate of the raw data of the original disk, sector by sector.

WELL NO ****!
You'd think that you'd have figured out by now that you shouldn't be asking about it on a public forum like this. It's blatantly obvious why you'd be asking, so just don't.
-
Stealth: Yeah, but you think I'm gonna help you when you'e being this dumb? Hell, I'd get banned meself...
-
This thread seems a tad unfair to me. If anyone else asked this question they'd get a few comments about warez and nothing else, and hopefully a technical answer. But, because its Stealth, there's a (near)smackdown by an admin and a slagging.
For Christ's sake the guy gave HLP members info on a kick ass host recently, but no because he broke the rules once lets crucify him. :rolleyes:

Stryke: you can't help me when you don't even know what an ISO is in the first place
Shrike: it's blatantly obvious why i'm asking for a program that makes ISOs? Really? then tell me what i'm going to be using the program for, if it's so "blatantly obvious". ****, for all you know i could be wanting to back up a CD, which is 100% legal you know.
you were asking for it when you asked "now why would you want to copy and burn ISOs"? and i just gave a reply, saying i'm not going to say, because i'll be accused of promoting warez.
you see, if you notice my first post in this thread, i didn't say: "i want a program that makes ISOs so i can illegally copy a CD"... i just plain out asked the question, so no one would know what i wanted it for, and therefore no one would accuse me of using it for warez.
*sigh*. can't do anything, can i.
-
**** this.
-
And you were expecting... what after you made yourself known as the indiscreet warez trader in the forum and started making posts with shifty references to software used primarily for warez and saying how if you told what you were doing you'd get in trouble for warez trading again?
How does it feel to not be thinking most of the time?
Incidentially, any decent CD burner package (e.g. Adaptec's) will give you a full CD copier, fool. Go ahead and hang yourself with it.
-
fuck you stryke. between you, ZylonBane, and an0n you piss me off like you've got no idea.
i can't ask a simple question without my motifs being questioned.
EDIT:

CD Copier copies from one CD drive to another. this only works if you have two drives, which i do not.
... fool.
admt it, you didn't even know what an ISO was.
-
No, not when it's fucking obvious what you're doing. If I'm known as a stoner, and I start asking around for places to get glass waterpipes, who's to say I'm not using them for tobacco? I mean, aside from common sense?
And that's what I'm here for, dum-dum. To annoy the people who deserve to be annoyed until they fucking relax and stop being stupid.
And if you don't have two CD drives, ****in' get 'em. It's not like they're the most bleedingly expensive things in the world. Hell, I'll sell you one, slighltly used, $100 upfront. No warranty.
-
EDIT: not even worth replying.
you're a bunch of morons. really.
-
You have issues, jefe.
Also, your comprehension of what others are saying is limited at best.
Damn, man, your kind makes us warez traders look bad. I mean, what kinda l33t kiddie is dumb enough to get burned multiple times on a hostile forum? Ya wanna keep at it, ya keep it ****in' discreet, and you generally keep it where it don't bother the easily offended, ya dig? Now shut up or ship out.

LADIES! PLEASE!:p
If you're this bored go to the hosting thread and help figure out my CGI problem.
Dear God I should be in bed!!! :wtf:

Vyper, stfu, this is funny ****.
-
Yeah, spoilsport.
Why there always gotta be someone wants to be the friggin' peacemaker and ruin everyone else's fun?
Anyway, Stealth buggered off, so I guess it's a moot point.
Er... Knight: Are you aware that your mother is a loose, immoral woman? Also unattractive!
:D
-
um...what exactly is illegal about an ISO creation program? If he wants to use it for warez then that is his business, but he didn't bring up anything about warez here, so I don't see what the trouble is. You might as well say that threads regarding advice on buying new computers are not allowed because they could potentially be used for warez. :p

Maybe to get into the fight themselves, and as this thread shows, it works. :D

The problem is that he wanted to be a whiny ***** instead of get an answer.
Self-pity does not garner sympathy from me, particularly when it's unearned.

what i've been trying to say to numbnut shrike and stryke.

no, you tried to give me an answer... too bad you didn't even know what an ISO was, so your suggestion didn't really help much.
and don't say you did, because if you did know what it was you wouldn't have said "Copy/paste works good"
-
Wouldn't that be plural? And I would never say "works good"- I have a basic comprehension of English.
Anyway, answer above.

I think Stryke hit the nail on the head. Stealth has been warned about warez before, including a week-long banning, and him asking about a tool that's most commonly associated with warez - far more so than with CD backups - is suspicious to say the least. His immediate reply of 'well you'll accuse me of using it for warez' and so on in various rants doesn't help his case either. If he was really concerned about just backing up CDs, he could definately have asked in a different way and been much less confrontational about it.
It's too bad you didn't learn the first time around Stealth. I'd hoped that you'd have taught yourself a bit more discretion.
-
*ahem*
ISOs are another handy way of creating the single backup copy one is legally entitled to make of a CD. I use Blindread and Blindwrite (www.blindwrite.com) to (respectively) make and burn ISO files. Hurrah for me.
[EDIT] Sorry, was I supposed to have flamed Stealth during that post?
-
hah. it's hilarious. ISOs are used throughout the world for hundreds of applications. sure, perhaps they're used for warez too, but then again, so are computers!
NO one better mention computers in this forum, since they are greatly involved in the world of warez :rolleyes:
you're such an asshole. i ask a simple question, you accuse me of using it for warez (even if i was, it's none of your business) and when i reply and say i can't tell you what i'm using it for because it might have something to do with warez, then you flame me. god, it's like a joke.
It's too bad you didn't learn the first time around Stealth. I'd hoped that you'd have taught yourself a bit more discretion.
OK Shrike, you're so good.
Tell me, how would you have asked for an ISO creation program?
-
You're welcome

"What's a good way of making a CD backup, I'm going to be backing up blah blah. Anyone have a good program." etc etc.
On the other hand, I wouldn't even ask on a public forum. That's just asking for trouble.
And again, you already got your warning for dealing with warez, then started asking about a program for copying CDs. Of course I'm going to be suspicious, and you flipped out the instant you were asked what it was going to be used for. You're not exactly building up a lot of sympathy here.
-
my question was legit. you made it "warez" with your comment.
-
Dude, asking about ISOs after you've been warned about warez is suspicious, ok? And you will note I said nothing about warez. You were the first to mention it by name. You could have simply said you were going to back up a couple CDs, but no, you had to fly off the hook.
-
so why even question me?
even if you KNEW i was going to use it for warez, why not just close your mouth, and let things happen, since I didn't mention warez, and according to vyper, diamondgeezer, CP, etc. it's a LEGIT QUESTION
On the other hand, I wouldn't even ask on a public forum. That's just asking for trouble.
!?
Thunder asks about his computer
Tiara talks about sex
People talk about movies
Darkage talks about desktops
Sandwich talks about suicide bombers
Stealth talks about ISO burning programs
what the HELL is wrong with this? what's the DEFINITION of a public forum!?

Because this is MY forum and I can ask whatever I damn well please, understood? You flew off the hook when you could have just as easily replied quite reasonably and explained what it was for. Your ranting and raving isn't going to change a thing. You practically incriminated yourself replying to my question, and continued to do so later.

Legal, but can be easily and are very commonly used for illegal purposes.

Public forums still have rules, furthermore, they have eyes. If you're going to ask about these kinds of things, have some bloody discretion.
-

!?
so can pretty much anything
Because this is MY forum and I can ask whatever I damn well please
and that's why i don't like it. the only reason i hang around is because of the projects i'm involved in and most of the community is nice. you? i don't like. you think you're too cool. all the other admins are cool, but you like to throw your authority around.
-
idiots.

If you can't see the difference between talking about current movies and talking about CD ripping programs I don't know what to say.

Am I supposed to care? You've been on the **** list for a while. Generally once someone gets banned they're not going to be looked on favorably thereafter, especially when they don't show any signs of learning their lesson.

yeah, your **** list. forgive me if i don't give a damn.
"don't show any signs of learning their lesson"!? so where have i "promoted warez" since that 'incident'?
-
Right here, Helen Keller.
Wow, some people really don't know when to shut their mouths and drop their ego problems.:lol:
-
oh ****, I missed it :sigh:
and in case anyone is interested, I did terrible. 450 at best. :doubt:
Strykes' sister is a ho
-
Jesus christ man! All this becuase the guy wants some advice for a certain kind of software!?
-
No, all this because a guy wants to make an arse of himself.
And KT would know because his mom works for the same pimp, and he's her main customer, so he sees 'er on the way up to the hotel room. For that matter, same for his dad.
-
jeeze, that was almost equally as uninspired... *sigh*
at least I have an excuse :P
BRi: Have you actually read anything Stealth has said? Try again and you'll understand :)

Plus, we like to keep ourselves entertained.
Sexual exhaustion after last night with Granny or something?

Nothing like a good roast.
Worse. Christian music radio for the last 4 hours >_<
-
:blah:
I go to sleep and look what happens.... I also create ISO's to back up. (Not going into detail here :p)
Stealth, go here for a program that allows easy ISO image creation: http://download.com.com/3000-2646-10153590.html?tag=lst-0-1
Its legal, so don't go and needlessly ***** about it.
And Shrike, he didn't do anyithing illigal. So it was a wee bit pointless to go on a flaming tour (yes it was one :p)

If he had just calmly stated that he was going to be backing up a couple CDs I'd have been perfectly happy to let it go. But when the first thing you do is reply that someone will scream 'he's promoting warez' when he says what he needs it for, you're being more than a little suspicious. Either be honest or be discrete. If you have legitimate reasons for using it, why not just say so? It'll save you a lot of grief.

True, but you could've been a wee bit more subtle too. Like sending him a PM with a warning by saying, watch your step or face the ban again.
This could've avoided something of a flaming spree :p
-
why hasn't this thread been locked yet? It makes you (Shrike) appear like you're promoting flaming. Not a thing a strict administrator you appear to be should do.

[color=66ff00]Personally, I'm not touching this thing in an encounter suit.

Shrike's in here to try to make a point, pathetic, but stupid... even if i was going to use it for warez, whose business is it as long as i don't mention i'm going to use it for warez. And here's a trivia question for you: If i'm such a warez freak, why is it i don't have an ISO creation program yet? obviously i'm not "into warez" as much as you think i am
Stryke's in here to cover up that he didn't know what an ISO is, and to annoy everyone.
Knight_Templar is here to increase his post count.

[color=66ff00]OK on second thoughts this thread really looks like a vicious circle.
