View Full Version : noob question about UT2K3
Hey i recently got a cd burner and i want to backup my game Ut. i saved the game to an image file and i am trying to burn it but the file is 750 megs. i got cd's that hold a 700 megabyte limit. Is there anyway to get by this limit a burn it anyway? What rom should i used? i currecntly am using Quickburn and Nero. Thanks

Just continue to burn the image with the program that you created it with. The image file is usually bigger than it should be as some data is usually added during the reading (the data won't be written onto the disk, it is just there to be used by the program). Try to burn the image and if it does say that there isn't enough capacity on the disk, then remake the image and/or enable the overburn function in the program (search the options).
i hit overburn on stupid ass nero but it keeps giving me file is too big for cd. what rom should i use?
EDIT*i extracted iso and deleted un-useful shit and got it to 630 megabytes
:] thanks guys
you have to enable OVER BURN options in the settings

No need for overburning!
The image file is that big, cause it contains RAW sectors + 96 bytes sub-channel data, the free space on a cd-r is based on so-called cooked sectors (2048 bytes), RAW sectors are 2352 bytes, RAW sectors + subchannel data are 2448 bytes - so the image will fit on a normal 74min cd-r ...
