when I compress my picture files and burn them to cd, then from the cd try to decompress them on a hard drive, I get a message saying the file is incomplete or the file is corrupt. I have approx. 5000 pics which takes about 11GB what are my options and my best solution -thanks

It sounds like something went wrong with the compression software. You can skip that step anyway - you won't save any space trying to compress jpg files.
Just copy 700MB worth of files or folders to a CD at a time. That's 16 CD's. Or if you can burn DVD's, just 3.
I've personally bought extra (external) hard drives to backup my picture and music collection. That just seemed easiest, given the ludicrous amount of disk space, and it's also a great way to transfer hundreds of GB at a time between computers.

in case you downloaded the rar records, i'm assuming it replaced into possibly from a torrent website or rapidshare-like service. if so, basically burn the .rar records to the cd with out extracting them as in case you've been burning a textual content record to a cd. in case your pal does no longer know the thanks to unrar records, you may unrar them and burn them as information records too, because maximum rars in torrents do no longer have compression, so it received't be counted both way.

You can find a recent release of Winrar here: http://bitly.com/1p3Q69S
Winrar is the best way to open compressed files, folders or documents. you can unzip files zip, rar, tar, jar, 7z, iso, ect...
