I got Champions of Norrath and tried to burn it and got a serious problem. When it was time to write the info to the disc it couldn't because the files were to big to fit on a DVD-R 4.7 gig. I don't have a double layer burner. Is there a file or program that can fit the info to one DVD-R?

actually I just needed a file compressor of sort. Most file compressor programs are for movies only. Are their any for data(i.e. burn 9 gigs of data to a dvd-r? just a data compressor thats all really.

its not possible to compress a dvd9 ps2 game.
like i said,you have to split the dvd9 onto 2 dvd5 disc's,which is extremely difficult.

just found an update. If champions of norad is Champions of Norad: Realms of EverQuest then there is a fix for that for burning it to DVD5. Its for both types of DVD's... PAL and NTSC.. so im going to post the link directly to the file: http://www.swapmagicfix.com/ChampionsOfNorrathRealmsOfEverQuest.zip
hope that helps!
