    Hi all,

    I have an .iso file that is 7 gigs and I don't know how to burn it into one DVD. There is actually a second part that is 4 gigs, and I'd like to know how to put both of them onto one DVD, if possible.

    Any help is appreciated! Thank you all very much.

    Allan

    Unless you are using dual layer (nominal 8.5GB) you cannot.
    You can use DVD Shrink (File > Open Disc Image)to get the 7GB ISO down to 4.4 GB and burn with your favourite program.

    If you intend to use dual layer, do a search at Afterdawn.
    There are pitfalls with some programs.
    It seems to be a consensus that a combination of 'DVD Decrypter' to burn and 'Verbatim' as media give the best results - but I haven't tried it.
