tercr6 Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 I have around 6 - 8 .iso images in MBs i need to burn to make a bootable CD(s) or Cd and a DVD . They will not all fit on one DVD-RW I burnt the #1 image using CdburnerXP , but that CDR will not load . I have used Cdburner to burn 1 .iso image for win7 and that worked , but I can not get that program to burn more that 1 image on the disk. I ran across a post that stated to use Imgburn . How do I do this ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmalves Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 ImgBurn can't do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 You can queue up multiple images to burn to multiple discs but you can't burn multiple images onto a single disc.... well, not unless you want them 'backed up' as actual files rather than writing them how you're supposed to burn them. Remember that an ISO is an image of an entire disc. That is to say, you burn a complete new disc from a single image. (1 image = 1 disc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had burn the # 1 .iso to CDR , unfortunately that CD will not boot up to install . I went into bios and set the CD drives as first . I also read somewhere that if you convert the .iso's and drop/drag or copy/past all the files from all the .iso's into one folder .then burn all the files to cd or dvd that will work . Haven't tried it ,what do people here think ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 Assuming none of the files conflict with each other, I guess that could work, yes. You'll still need to extract the bootable bit from the first disc and apply it to the new image you make though. Isn't it easier to just download a version of said program that's made for DVD rather than 6 CD's though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately this one goes to a folder ( named ) and contains multiple .iso's . The 6th one says R&R bootable ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 I really have no idea, this is something you need to figure out yourself or with whoever supplied the discs/images. If you have an actual problem using ImgBurn then feel free to ask for help, otherwise you're on your own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a lot of .iso files to build and burn; and I want to use multiple burners simply to reduce the waiting time. I am only burning one copy of each iso, but will have up to 3 different iso images being burnt at the same time. Is ImgBurn capable of this ? I assume so, as it just means having 3 instances of the software open at the same time. Does this cause any issues or conflicts though ? Many thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cynthia Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 my issue is very related to this thread. The original thread is about putting several images into 1 disc. Your issue is how to burn several images to several burners at the same time. Your issue seems more related to this thread. http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=930 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 Yes, hijacking. They're my rules. If you're not helping out the original author of the thread then you have no business posting in it. If you read the pink thing above you'll see that it clearly tells you to create a new thread.
