Burning downloaded EMC 10 to cd or dvd

[Glenn P]

Anyone have any idea how to get the downloaded EMC 10 Program file to burn to CD?

The CONTENT file burns OK?

 

I still have to manually install the app. from cd.

 

The PROGRAM file only installs from the folder it was downloaded to.

 

I tried burning with EMC 10 and NERO 7, same error message.

 

I will appreciate any suggestions.

 

Thanks

The program file for EMC 10 is too big to burn to a CD. You need to burn it to a DVD.

I realize that, and actually I burnt both to a dvd+rw. There were no burning errors, and when viewing the files on the DVD+RW it all appeared OK.

 

It was the Installation, at about 90% installed I got the corrupt file message.

 

I first tried burning with the EMC 8 I had installed from store bought CD's.

 

Then NERO 7. and finally EMC 10 which installed perfectly from the download folder.

 

It is as if there are some anti-piracy code causing the installation error from a copy of the original.

 

I had to restore the xp pro 64 bit os, and of course all my apps, as I never been successful with the F.A.S.T

app on the XP PRO CD. But that is another discussion. This when I discovered the problem.

 

Thanks for the reply.

I'm not sure why you burned your backup on RW media. RW is fine for short-term things like testing (if it works, burn to R media), or transferring files when the original is safely on the originating computer, but if the idea is to KEEP the data (which is what backups usually are), use the more stable R media.
