Has anyone gotten this error while trying to extract an image with CDRWIN:

"Unexpected failure writing to hard disk (disk full?)"

The extraction seems to be going along well until about 98%, then the error message pops up. I am positive that my hard drive is NOT full, so why is this happening? What settings should I change to correct this? Or, should I just burn the backup copy with only 98% of the image? Thanks for any help...

Nope, when you burn just the 98%, your game will probably refuse to work.

Are you really sure that you've got enough diskspace ? A psx image usually is ~ 730 MB in size.... and if your swapfile is on the same disk as the image you're dumping, you may have suck :(.

Which os are you using ? Win95/Win98/WinNT/Win2000 ? Have you previously trashed the recycler ?
