Hello,
I have a couple of disc images that I want to burn(combo drive). I open Disc Copy File>Burn Image>select image to burn, it asks for a blank cd and then gives error not enough free space on disc to burn. They are 700 MB cds and the images are 650 MB being the biggest. Whatam I doing wrong.

Any help would be great.

I'm doing all of this in 10.2

when finder gets its hands on a disk it formats it and wastes lots of space, I have finder set to ignore all blank disks and I use toast with no problems up to 702mb

Disc Copy shouldn't have any problem with that. maybe your media is bad, or maybe your disk images are.

I posted this but no one replied.
I noticed that Toast has no problem with it, but the Finder does.
Strange.
