Well if I can't do that how can I split a ISO file so I can transfer to
another computer. my stupid DVD software is playing up
Winrar and winzip programs allow you to take a file and create a zip or
rar file, and in the process specify 'split into volumes' and then you
specify the size of the parts. Due to file attachment limitations of
most mail/news systems this has been done for years where files are
broken down for something in the range of 2 megs each and then sent in
pieces. Granted its 300 pieces but it works.
For your use you just need to split the file to 3gig or so to make sure
it safely sits on the drive.
Google around, there are also splitter and joiner programs to do this,
its a specific task and a specific program where winrar is a
multitasking program. Compression and split.
