Hey peachy did you know there were a couple of dummy files in there? Id take those out first because all they are is wasted space.

They are in the initial directory and are called buffer0 and buffer1. They are 100mb each. So you can instantly drop 200 mb just by eliminating those 2.

Thanx for the help guys. Took the demo files and buffer files out and the iso size came down to 3.74 gigs, burnt it to dvd and it works great
