alright guys this is what happened i ripped espn football, basketball, and hockey to my puter via ftp with the box. everything went smooth. all and by the way i did not transfer over the update or dashupdate files but did not think that would matter. then i went through making iso images of them so they could be burned. here is where i ran into trouble. hockey and basketball went fine. but football tries but then gets an error. i am using isomaker 2.0. it flashes quick but it just say that the file failed to copy or something like that. i was starting to think that maybe something went wrong in the ftp but that does not make sense. so i also thought that it might be the size. i have to transfered a file of that size before. it is like 4+ gig. i wonder where the temp file is for that. i might be that when it is making it the temp folder is not allowed to be that big. do not know if i am just blowing hot wind or not so if anyone has an idea give me a yell

Try using Craxtion to create the ISO and RecordMax to burn it. I don't know what you're using but Nero sometimes has problems with 4+ gig ISOs on some machines.

i am not having trouble burning i runs nicer than any other prog on my machine. the problem is iso maker 2.0. it uses gdfimage to make a dgfed iso. it is not completing the task. it has a copy failure when i try to make the iso. i looked but i do not know where the temp file for it would be. i do not have a folder option for my regular temp file that regulates size of the temp folder(aka percentage of disk to use). i upped my recycle bin to accomodate but not temp directory. can not find it. i think it might be the prob cuz everything else runs smooth except for this file. i think because it is the only thing i have over 4 gig. the closest i came was 3.7 gig. so if anyone can help a bro i would appreciate it

you made the same post twice...........it has nothing to do with nero cuz i do not use it. plus i not getting far enough to burn. i might try craxtion but i think my prob is in the temp files......i am running xp and can not find the options for size of temp. does anyone know where it is

What file system are you using? If you're using FAT32 then you may have to update to NTFS. FAT32 has a 4 GB filesize limit. If you are using NTFS then just try giving Craxtion a shot.

i am using FAT32 what is the difference in switching to NTFS and how do i do that. will affect anything else

i have been told that I need to run slayer in order to have any hopes of saving my timed out harddrive, do I need a modchip in order to go about this?

one i do not know why aphrodite jsut all of a sudden posted in my thread when it has nothing to do with it. he should have started a new thread.
anyways would it be possible to partition my drive and ntfs jus the new partition and keep the original one fat32 so i do not risk loosing info.

You do not lose anything information when going from FAT32 to NTFS.

MS.com has a good tutorial on how to convert. It's easy and takes about 20-25 mins.
