    Save folder sized 1.5Gb to cd ??

    I've folder (MSDN 2003) in a folder (Program files) with size of 1.5 Gb . I want to save this folder in a CD with Nero 6.0 but when I add this folder it exceed the size limit of the cd (700mb) and tells me to insert a bigger CD , Is there an easier way to backup this folder (spanning) to number of CDs (like ISO , or any other format) ?

    Thanks

    How much does it get ZIPped to?
    OR
    Split the files into several CDs. Easy Peasy.

    Oh no . This would take time . If I zip the folder , it still would exceed 1Gb I believe .
    But I'm thinking that there's an option in Nero that make folder spanning . There must be a way with Nero but can't see any option though .

    Try to pick some of the folders in the MSDN folder into one CD and the rest to the next one and so on....

    BTW if you have MSDN...don't you have the original CD then?...

    This is what I thought to do first , but in my case it would suck me. See the below image , these files are 1.5 gb ......

    No , I gave them to one of my friends and now he's on vacation . Actually I've downloaded them .

    I thought Nero is clever enough to copy some files and then ask me to put in a second cd then the third .

    Tips:
    • Google is your friend! Search before posting!
    • Name your thread appropriately... "I Need Help" doesn't cut it!
    • Always post your code!!!! We can't read your mind!!! (well, at least most of us!)
    • Allways Include the Name and Line of the Exception (if one is occuring!)
    • If it is relevant state the version of Visual Studio/.Net Framwork you are using (2002/2003/2005)
