Answer 1

Using your CD-RW drive, copy blocks of ~500MB of data to a new CD_R and burn sets. If you do not have a DVD, then why not instead off load all the files at once to an external drive and not waste your time copying multiple CDs.

I use a very large portable HD as a backup with my systems (USB 2.0) since it is fast, has high capacity, and in case I want to burn a CD-R from that data, it is merely a matter of drag n drop. Nero seems to work consistently.

Good luck.

Answer 2

sorry, I don't believe it. its a DVD, not CD, must be miss marked somehow. However, in my early days of burning CD's, when I messed things up, I would try to add files over and over without first erasing old ones on CD first, maybe this is happening here.

Answer 3

4.7Gb is the capacity of is single sided, single layer DVD
800Mb would be good for a CD
Looks like you need a DVD drive

Answer 4

4.7 GB is a DVD-ROM, a CD has far less capacity at its most, if you have no DVD drive then that disc is not gonna be usable.

Answer 5

it sounds like a dvd
