Split ISO with 7-zip [Cynthia]

How exactly does one split with 7-zip? Do you need to unpack first?

 

In either case will the new ISO image be already compatible with the .mds file?

Install hte program and then right click on the iso file and select 7-Zip -> Extract to "your iso name".

If another layer break is selected, no. Always better/safer to use the "new" .mds file that is created when you build something.

This step I knew. I simply thought you meant with split, 7-zip will create the proper ISO itself. I was a bit surprised. That's all.

Alright, I'll try it now.

Thanks for the support.

Another (disk saving space) option is to mount the ISO with a free image tool, like http://www.dvdfab.com/virtual-drive.htm , then just build a new image with ImgBurn.

Ok, everything worked. Even with my TSSTcorp. drive (LIGHTNING UK! complained in a 2006 edit:thread about Samsung's bitsetting).

 

Ah right, helpful stuff always escapes my mind when I'm stuck.

At the moment I have Daemon Tools. Have you tried WinCDEmu? I always meant to try it but never came around to do it.

No. But it looks as it also should work very well.
