In very simple terms - no.

The CD format typically holds between 650-700MB per disc. For an image that size a DVD-R (4.7GB) would be required.

All the more reason to buy a DVD/RW isn't it? :P

And welcome to our forums!

Welcome welcome... Nephilim is correct in saying you cannot burn that kinda capacity onto a CDRW. :)

Whats the currency on those discs Nephilim? (Here in Canadam, you can easily find them, in bulk, at ~1/disc)

U.S. dollars. There may be better deals - I don't really use RW's so I'm not current on prices for them :)
