I Copied a game I bought onto my laptop in case the disc was damaged. And since it was recently damaged by some rowdy children I no longer have the game disc to play the game. But i still have the copy but the only problem is is the game data is 5.6GB and the DVD-R discs i have are 4.7GB. Is there any way to burn the game on two discs? Its a computer game but I know i can run a virtual mount but that's if i play it on the laptop.
My laptop is an Acer Aspire 5733Z-4851 with a multi recorder DVD drive. Will this allow me to burn the game to a DVD-9 disc?
 
Impossible I`m afraid, you need a DVD 9 disc and I`m not sure if all dvd drives will work with these as they are dual layer.

You could try copying to a flash drive instead.
 
Not sure if you can, I would try ImgBurn if you haven't already. I'm guessing no as you would have to be able to access all the files from the original at the same time to make the image work. I don't think it's like the old floppy disc where it says, please insert disc 2. I could be wrong.

[Edit] Yeah, I think your best bet is to use a virtual mount in your case.
 
No u can't, I've tried similar...try to get a different capacity of dvd
 
You'll need DVD-9 discs for your game data.
