Burning an MDS...System cannot find specified file


Recommended Posts

Posted

I have an image of a CD as an MDS. The folder contains 2 files:

 

1. Image.mds

2. Image.mdf

 

I select the MDS to burn the image but I get the error:

 

Cannot open file F:\Img\Image

Reason: The system cannot find the specified file.

 

 

The directory is correct but is the program looking for a file called "Image" rather than "Image.mdf"?

The mds must have the wrong name in it - probably because you renamed the files? (or someone did)

 

Just rename your image (mdf) and remove the extension, then it'll load it.

I tried that and it didn't work. It gave me an error that said "Invalid or unsupported image file format". I used Daemon Tools Pro to create the image and I've successfully mapped the image as a drive. So the image apparently works, I just can't get it burned to a cd.

DT pro can do all sorts of things that ImgBurn won't support - i.e. compression / encryption.

 

On a bog standard image, ImgBurn should have no problem loading it so something isn't quite right.
