I have a Simulator that I train to fly RC Helicopters on.  I copied the setup files off of the main DVD. And I transferred the files to another computer in small packets because of the size, my upload is slow. So I could not have sent the whole image at once. 

 

Now I'd like to use imgburn to make a bootable img from these setup files.

Under Advanced and tick Make Image Bootable.

 

It says

 

Boot Image?

Develop Id?

Load Segments?

Sectors To Load?

 

My Program is 5.36GB on the DVD or 5,762,617,344bytes

It's a UDF

 

Is their any way I can make the boot image, and get the rest of the info to make the files back into a useable bootable img for thumb drive use on the other computer.

 

This is my software that I bought.

 

I know I could just use imgburn and rip a img right off, then load it onto a thumb drive.  But I would like to figure out how to do it above.

 

Thanks for your time and efforts.

What OS is it supposed to boot into?

 

Bootable discs normally boot into a version of DOS, does your application run in DOS?

 

Also, as I'm not 100% clear on what you're trying to do, I'll just point out that ImgBurn doesn't write images to USB thumb drives.

I need to convert the setup files back to a bootable img.

 

It run's in Windows 7 OS 64bit.

 

Yeah I got a separate program windows7usb;dvd tool to load the img onto the thumb drive.

 

It needs to boot and run like a dvd when you pop it in the drive.

To install, like a program, not a windows o.s.

 

I think I need some file to put in imgburn to tell it to boot the thumb drive.

If that's what you want to do, it has nothing to do with the 'Bootable Disc' tab you're currently looking at.

 

Automatic start/playback of a disc you insert when you're already in Windows is controlled by the autorun.inf file in the root directory of the disc.

 

If you've copied all of the files off the original dvd, split them into manageable chunks, sent them somewhere and joined them together again, you've got everything you need. Just make a new ISO.

Thanks LIGHTNING, I believe got it figured out. Imgburn was doing it's job, but after I used the windows 7usb/dvd tool to load the img on the thumb drive it would never finish loading the img. Always an error. So I thought I was not using imgburn right. But it turned out the windows7usb tool was what was acting up. I tried another usb tool to burn the iso to my thumb drive and it works now.
