me.  you were wrong, end of story.  you obviouslydon't know what Nero looks like or you'd recognize the window.  thanks for your help though.
also, if you checked the second post inthis thread,wherei was asked what program i was using... i responded: "Nero 5"
Thanks

Swamp thing is right on this, Nearly every ISO image I've made is way over 700 mp for full discs. You have to use the "Burn Image" option under the File menu and select the ISO for burning. Do NOT add the .ISO image to a new compliation or anything like that. When using the Burn Image method, you will be asked for an .NRG image file. Ignore that and make it look for All Files and select your .ISO file. Nero should "Translate" the ISO into the proper CDDA Filesystem format, fitting the data onto the disc. You cant just burn the .ISO file to disc because the .ISO file is an IMAGE. Images will include extra information such as disk geometry, etc, usually. If you burn the image file itself onto CD, you'd be burning that extra 50 mb. If you have nero "translate" the image into a real CDDA filesystem format, it will fit - In theory.

right.  and that's what i did to burn the ISO, and what i've always done to burn ISOs in the past.  FILE --> BURN IMAGE.

Liberator:  i'll try burnatonce, thanks.

i have no idea what files i need and which i don't

Get rid of SETUP.EXE - it's a whole MEGAbyte - what a waste of room!



















...this post was heavy on the sarcasm, FYI. Don't really delete SETUP.EXE. Honest.

you think it's warez, but you'll note that this topic has nothing to do with warez... it's about burning a 784 MB file on a 700MB disk.  you can think it's warez if you want, but there's a difference between making a thread about "how to download the newest movies" and "how to burn an ISO onto a disk"

... ass.

On a sidenote: AFAIK it's perfectly legal to burn a backup copy of your disc if you legally own its contents.

I didn't know they shipped windows on ISO's. I'm really very sorry. not. donkey.

Ever heard of broken dics?
How do you wanna recover data from that Mr.Proper?

Sheeesh....

[Stealth]

hey listen kode, i don't know if you think you're 'cool' trying to cause trouble, or if it's just a way of raising your e-dick, or whatever, but if you've got nothing constructive to say, then plz get the hell out, ok?

[Scuddie]

Ummm...  Stealth, you might want to look into using Nero 6.6, as it is much better now, than it was during it's infancy.  If what you have is what I think it is, it fits on one CD perfectly fine.  Trust me, I know.

BTW:  Kode, nobody cares.  STFU and be quiet while you're at it.

[kode]

well, scuddie, you obviously cared enough to try to flame me. I thought I've made it pretty clear; I'm here to troll you. and I seem to do it pretty darn well.

and idiots that can't do stuff like this shouldn't even ****ing bother with it.

mr proper would call his friend at microsoft sweden and say "hej, det är jag. min windowsskiva är trasig, kan ni skicka en ny?"

Grow up, you lot.

Stealth: You could try cutting out some stuff (irrelevant drivers, components etc) from the ISO with N-Lite - I used it to make my own customised XP install disc - I dunno if it'll work with Windows Server or whatever it is you have, but it's worth a look...

and now, don't come tell me I didn't help you the f out, tard.

[Scuddie]

He shouldnt have to do that.  I, myself have an extended copy of Server 2003, (special thanks to SFNTUG for my 25 client license ) and the ISO for that is 779 megs.  So either you are doing it wrong, or the author of the ISO did it wrong.  Either way, the disc needs to be burned at Mode 1 (iirc), which is 2352 bytes per sector.  The extra 304 bytes are CRC checks and subchannel data, and the disc will be burned improperly if using Mode 2.  Well, I think thats how it works anyway :\.  I havent converted ISO in a long time, I might have Mode 1 and Mode 2 mixed up.  All you need to know however, is to write at 2352 bytes per sector.

EDIT:  Kode, please stop trolling...  It is getting very irritating.

well, duh! it wouldn't be trolling if it wasn't.

thx for the help everyone, i'll give Nero 6.6 a try, and i'll let you all know how it goes.

in Nero, how do you select what "mode" you want to burn the ISO?  i always go File --> Burn ISO --> (select ISO) --> (select burn speed) , and that's it :-/

[Scuddie]

When you start Nero, set your preferences, etc and choose Recorder -> Burn Image.  Make a note of the info tab.  If it says mode 1 with a size of higher than 700MB, then something is wrong.  Check the Foreign Image tab, and see what it says.  If it's Mode1 or Mode 2/XA 2352, the ISO wasnt created properly, and the "source" screwed up.  If it's Mode 1 2048, it really is too big...  Again, in this case, the source screwed up.  However, speculation must be shoved aside.  It's the end result that matters.  Just to be sure, Select DAO/96 as the burning mode, and select a simulation run, and uncheck write.  This will be the test of whether or not that is a bad ISO.  Perhaps the best thing to do is "find another source".

If a data track is over 704MB, it cannot be written to on a high density (700) disc.  To make an ISO of anything more than that is stupid.  Especially when the said ISO is less than a gig, which wont work for a DVD.

EDIT:  I am backwards.

I think that's quite enough.
