Space problem

Hye,



Can anyone tell me a good software to write an approx 800MB file in a 700MB cd?



Thanks.

winzip will compress the file for you

www.winzip.com



if the compression rate is not high enough then try winrar or winace

My guess is that the 800 MB file is video file, so it's not a good choice to compress it.
The 800 MB could be written on a 700 MB disk without the correction CRCs. But if the cd get scratched, the cd would become unusable.
So it's better to convert that video file with such settings that decrease it's final size below 700 MB.

It can be done natively if the video file is a (S)VCD -- not so with a straight up DataCD.... well ... you *could* use 800MB/900MB media

The file is an installation of a game.

WHat Game?

If its an image file, burn away, image files are often in excess of 700MB (unless its an ISO/NRG/other Mode1-2048 format). I outlined a few of the common image formats here: http://www.hazza.dsl.pipex.com/faq.htm

Its not an image.I intend burning the file using NERO 5.5.8.3. The exact size is 728MB and it is already zipped form 735MB or round about that.So i need to compress it by about 5%.Will NERO burn the file on a 700MB cd without damaging the SONY writer which i will be using?

Also is there a way to transfer the above file from one PC to another to other via the net?

Try WInRAR HAS Better Compression rate then WinZip in some instances try that,



What Game are ye copyin???

A game available free on the net.
