Writing more than 700MBs on CDs

I have microsoft office on one disc .Its size on PC shows 1.16gb .But that complete office io in only one cd .So i think overburning can be extended upto 1gb .So in your case it is possible to .I think there is still space for some more burning that cd .

i think you can cheat roxio into giving you an extra 5 or so megs, but not more. nero...i have burned stuff up to 712 or 715M but i've never had success with more than that. perhaps if you have small files that it can allocate to small 'chunks' of the disk, such as txt files or small jpgs. i don't think standard cds are meant to hold more than 800M though. the issue with the burnt copy of office is probably because some of the files (such as cab files) open up and expand once they get installed into the hard drive. so most likely, the full content on the cd could not have been 1G unless maybe it was burnt with a funny kind of cd, or maybe even DVD.

Yeah i know you can burn more than 700 mb on a cd but that purely depends on cd. Usually a CD contains a little more than 700 Mb say 710 mB so that you can burn more on it. ITs not nero who is doing this. its just the extra space which you get with blank cd

Overburning a cd is not recommended,however it can be accomplished using good brand Cd-writer like Plextor and a software capable of burning overburned Cd's.The overburned Cd may not be readable on some Cd drives also.For a data Cd the amount of data you can input is likely to be 703mb.But in case you write a video Cd it can be upto 798 Mb on a 700Mb capable disc due to specific data.
