Hi people was just wondering if any of you know what the deal is with theese iso files?

i know a little but not a lot !

I know that theese iso files are disc image files that need to be burnt to a disk in order for me to use it but i have an iso file that is a game it is for pc and its 5.6 gb as far as i know the amount i can burn to a dvd disk is 4.7gb??

if anyone understands what im rabbling on about pls reply .......!!!

Many thanx

daemon tools is like a fake disk drive program that lets you mount images to it and install them.

The file coudl also be 2 disks worth and would ask you to insert another disk at some point.

Many thanx mr wigglesworth

Will give it a go

Try deamon tools, its free and you dont need to burn.

If you try and split it over multiple disks, it may not work as the game files often check the integrity of the disk.

Demon tools is great if you just want to run it on your computer. Have you got a duel layer burner? Can fit 8.5GB on those dvd's..

Do a google for winiso as well - very useful little app for burning iso's to cds/dvds.

I use DVD Decrypter for backing up my XBox and PS2 games, if PC game mount the image on virtual drive and play it without burning the disk, if you want it on disk would suggest making sure you have a DVD Writer, if burning Xbox dual layer games a special DVD dual layer DVD burner if required, a standard dual layer DVD drive will not work with Xbox games as the firmware needed to be modded inside the dual layer DVD burner, any games not related to Xbox should burn on a standard Dual Layer.

Depends on the type of game though, what platform it is on, pc, xbox, ps2, Wii, etc, with Xbox will also need to update filmware on occation depending on which Ixtreme flash software installed on the modded xbox.

Currently playing Saint Row 2, tis the dogs bollox.

Hi mate,i use an open source program called Infrarecorder if i'm on windows to burn ISO's,it's pretty easy to use and always does the job for me

either that or get 8gb dvds to burn to thats what i do, then its all on one disk

yeh dual layer for over 4.5gb

Good luck

ps i use img burn for wii games (iso)

Yup - as already mentioned - you can mount the DVD disc image using a free program like Daemon Tools Lite and use it like that, or if you have a dual-layer DVD burner (and dual-layer DVD blanks) you can burn it off onto one of those.
