What are you trying to do with it? Do you need to get to the info on it (use a virtual drive), just be able to transfer the info(compress it) or have it function as a DVD(you could use DVD Shrink or DVDFAB Located HERE)

I wanted to burn it to DVD so I could use it in the future like a normal DVD. I have Vista and Daemon Tools doesn't seem to work for it.

dvd shrink only works on windows xp and u need to have nero for it to burn right.

Since I said I had Vista and you point out dvd shrink works only on windows xp, it appears we are at an impasse.

I tried using DVDShrink and got an "Invalid UDF File System" error.
This is not my day.

But, yeah, go buy some DL DVDs.
CC has a 20pk of Nexxtech's for $16.99 on sale this week.[/QUOTE]
Alright, thanks, that's a much better answer, as long as I can use a regular DVD burner for DL DVDs?

No, it has to be a dual layer burner.
Is your burner pretty old?
Almost any recent burner in the past couple of years should be DL.

Don't personally have a good recommendation for Nexxtech.
Bought 2 x 5 packs from them, and got 3 successful burns, so 70% coasters.
DVD Shrink 3.2 seems to work fine for me under windows vista home premium as well.

Do you have Nero Ultra? If you do you can look up what kind of discs your drive will burn. Be careful because for example my DVD burner will burn DVD+R DL but NOT DVD-R DL. So you really need to see what will work first before you buy.

DVD shrink works on Vista too
Another option if it's too big is to put it on a thumb drive. You can open .iso files with winrar, so you would be able to do installs that way. If you get a u3 drive or install something like portable apps you can just winrar without having to install it on the host computer.
