What do u do when the ripped cdi is too large

I've burned over 60 games and every now and then i come across a game which is too large for an 80min disk. What do i do to rectify the situation. sometimes i can just download the game for a second or third time and then i have a burnable version. Has anyone else had this problem? Can someone tell me how to fix it.

Doctor_funkenstein is on a distinguished road
Greetings from the Great White North:

You have a couple of options here:

1: extract the image to a folder and install it from there. Isobuster, winiso, and ultraiso will all work fine. Make a folder for the game and use any of these programs to extract it to that folder. Go into the folder and install the game. This work fine unless you need the cd to be in a drive to play the game. Maybe you can find a no-cd crack for the game.

If you need a cd in a drive to play the game:

2: Get a copy of Clone cd version 4.2.0.2 This is the only version of clone cd that works for this P.S. - this is the only software on the planet (in my experience) that will copy protected game discs. I used this to copy Battlefield 1942 discs when nothing else worked, not nero/roxio/alcohol/or any other versions of clone cd worked for this. You can find it on limewire or edonkey. IT MUST BE VERSION 4.2.0.2 Okay, install clone cd and create a virtual clone drive (right click the sheep icon in the system tray, go to virtual clone drive, and create one). This will create a virtual drive that will show up in windows explorer. Go to windows explorer and right click on the virtual drive, select mount, and browse to the .iso image file. If it's not an iso, extract the .bin (or whatever it is) to a folder using isobuster, open Roxio or adaptec easy cd creator, load the contents of the folder and create an .iso file. Load this .iso into the virtual drive and yee-ha! You now have the game disc (no matter how large) loaded into a virtual cd drive and you can install and play it!

Let me know if this works for you.


Cheers,

Doctor Funkenstein

???

have you tried overburning.? all DC cdi's can fit on an 80 min. cd. the DC cant even read past the 82 or 83 minute mark.

even the biggest cdi which i came across is 772mb in size. it fits on an 80 min cd. use RAW/DAO in A120%.
