Copying Discs

[Guest]

I am trying to copy a disc but the CD writing wizard keeps telling me I have not enough free space for all the files on the disc and I should reduce them by 117MB.

I have copied the information from a CD then saved it and tried to copy it on to another CD in my 'E' drive.

I have tried to compress the information without sucess and am stumped!!! What am I doing wrong? Can you get CDs of different sizes? How can I get round this problem?

Any sugestions/assistance greatfully received!

Mindy, often times files are compressed on a CD. If you have a
burner and another cdrom or dvd drive
then try copying CD to CD without first copying an image to the hard
drive. You can try CloneCD for free
