Burn to 800MB CD-R !!

Nowdays people’s hunger for space is increasing. People are not satisfied with 700MB CD-R’s available in the market. So they go for 800MB CD-R. Burning to 700MB CD and 800MB CD are entirely different tasks.

I will tell you how to burn to 800MB CD-R successfully using Nero 6.6.013

Requirements:

1. A branded 800MB CD-R preferrably Amkette.

2. A writer supporting Overburning.
To check whether this feature is supported by your writer go to Recorder Menu and then select Choose Recorder. Now Select your recorder and in the bottom you should look for this on the screen.Overburn: Supported

3. You need to have the latest firmware for your recorder model, as it will contain information to enable overburning. Most importantly, it will contain read/write strategies for new brands of CD-R and CD-RW media and can resolve many issues you may otherwise run into.

Steps to do:

1. Go to File>>Preferences>>Expert Features and check the box:
Enable Disc-at-once CD overburning and set Maximum CD Size as according to given specifications:
For 80 min media set to 82:00
For 90 min media set to 89:30
For 99 min media set to 99:54:74
and now click OK.

2. Now select File>>New and select No Multisession

3. Click on ISO and set Data Mode to Mode 2/XA

Note for here:

Any CD blank with a size over than 80 minutes (about 700 MB) should be recognized as a size-80 minutes CD due to ISO restrictions. This is absolutely normal. As a result, you could never write a multisession CD using more-than-90-minutes CD blank. If you will try to create multisession on such CD, you should be limited with size-80 minutes (or size-700 MB). As an enother result, you should use overburning option to write CD’s with capacity of over than 80 minutes.

4. Select Burn and check Write Method: Disc-at-once or Disc-at-once/96. Do not load any application during 90-minutes CD burning and decrease burning speed to 12x to avoid buffer overrun.

Hope you will now be comfortable using 800MB CD-R’s but don’t overburn regularly. It can sometimes damage your Writer permanently also. Their are several complaints regarding this.P.S. Writer does not claim responsibility of the success of the above method in every case. I will not be held responsible in case you damage some of your hardware or software while doing this.
