    So W7 troubles...


    ok I have the ISO downloaded...it let me "back-it-up" to 5 discs, tried restoring it, failed miserably... when done downloading, it opens "NTI CD DVD MAKER"...go to do data cd, it says the iso file is too large to copy to disk. Im trying to get file to burn to the disc but keep getting cockblocked...


    Any help? And how can I tell what version i need? i.e. 64-bit, 86bit

    Hi The download is an ISO disk image and has to be burned as an image.

    If your installed burning software cannot handle this type of image you can try the free ImageBurn .....

    The Official ImgBurn Website

    If you complete your system specs we may be able to check if your hardware is 64bit capable

    Update your System Spec

    Hi Cuzz,

    As far as I know there is no way to 'span' any DVD ISO file across multiple CDs. You will need to burn to DVD as it is a DVD Image.

    You could also try this tutorial and see if it helps you.

    Only way thats possible is by splitting the ISO into 5 pieces small enough to fit on 5 CD's, But why not do it the normal way, with 1 DVD.?

    Standard Blank DVD5's can hold 4.35 GB of data. You can buy them from virtually any retailer and they're dirt cheap too

    If you do not have a DVD burner there is an alternate way to install Windows 7 using a 4gb USB drive.

    Click HERE for the tutorial on how to do that.

    Just a thought is your drive a DVD R/W drive & not a DVD rom drive
