Having a hard time making my backup of Halo 2 into an ISO image. I have all the files on my pc hard drive, and I tried making them into an ISO image using one program, i forget which one because I uninstalled it, but after I did that it said that the ISO was too big to burn to one 4.7 GB DVD. Halo 2 can copy to just one DVD, right? I'm pretty sure that other people have done it. Regardless, I'm now looking for a differnt ISO creating program, because that ISO image was too large and I believe the problem was the software I used, correct me if I'm wrong. But anyway if you know of a good ISO creating program please let me know.

You will need to remove a few movies from the .iso..
The ISO is way too big for a normal DVD-R..

This is what i would do.

1. Backup Halo 2 to your XBOX HDD
2. FTP the whole game folder to your pc eg. C:\Halo2\
3. Now go into the c:\Halo2\bik\ directory and look for all the movies, intro files for the game.
4. Find the smallest .bik file.. I think its called intro.bik..
5. Now copy that file a few times (the smallest one) and rename it to the largest video files.. This way we are making the game smaller.

once you have replaced the .bik files with the smallest ones you can then burn a xiso of it for backup..

hope it helps.
