Large files

I have files that are over 1GB in size. They are back up files in case the original was ever damaged. I want to burn these files to a disc but the file is too large. How can I burn these files to a disc that is only 700MB in size?What should I do? Thanks.

If you don't own a Plextor Premium,you can try to split the file with,for example,Filesplitter(http://www.filesplitter.net/) and burn them on 2 discs. Or you can create a self extracting spanned rar or zip and burn it on 2 discs.

Ignition used to do the job for me for that exact situation: http://www.kcsoftwares.com/index.php?ignition filesplitter is also very good too!

Why not just use WinRAR and compress the files and if they are still to big you could split the archive in parts too

I know that i have lots to do in order to make Ignition intuitive to use... sorry. Load files / folder that you want to dispatch. Click on optimize. Then click on burn. If you load a folder which total size is bigger than a media's size, you'll have to "ungroup" its content. If you want to "lock" a group of files / folders together, select then and click on "group
