Searchs for information are now much quicker.
can you please explain how to reduce size of the image?

i have read somewere that also a info15.psv file have to be edited, but i do not know how.

please help

After obtaining the iso image file, open it with an iso editing program (UltraISO is very good and simple to use). You will then be able to see all the files that will make up the DVD when it is written.
Look down the list of directories to find one called TPD, open it & look for another called NCCBEUFNM_EU_20081007 and open this.
I then deleted the directories FRE, ITA & SPA which reduced the image size (shown at the top of the screen) to 4429MB - small enough to get on a single layer DVD. Obviously, don't delete a language you want (I only wanted ENG)
Save the image as the same name you started with & burn to DVD.
That it!

Hi,
What DVD do you use?
I had the same problem. I used a wrong DVD+R - changed to Verbatim DVD+R LightScribe and my DVD is running.

Only a guess but as Ti-ejtsch says above, different brands and only burning at lowest speed does make a difference. If you deleted the directories without a problem, saved the new ISO image without the additional languages and burnt it to a DVD all without error, then I would think its possibly just a bad burn & try again.

Seems most posters here seem to like DVD+R but I had a couple of problems once and tried DVD-R which I thought seemed better but I still think it probably doesn't make much difference if they are good quality DVDs.
