burning large files

naisatoh · October 4th, 2002

i have game files on my computer that i would like to burn onto cds. however, they are over 700 mbs... is it still possible to burn this file on a cd without the end getting chopped off? i have this problem with final fantasy ix and chrono cross to name a few.

the bins are the files that are over 700 megs. i'm afaid maybe when i get to the end of the game it'll suddenly stop

No the ISO images are larger than the actual size on the CD (can't remeber the reason why) just use a program like nero, and go to file -> burn image. If it don't fit on the cd, it won't burn it.

Cd's actually hold more than 640mb of data. However some of this space is used to store ,eg the TOC, and other data so that your computer actually knows what data is stored on it. Basically if it came off a cd then by definition it will fit onto one.

_or_ it could simply be an ISO of a 80min disc ^_^ er, do any PSX games use it?

nyaa
