so i downloaded windows xp 8in1 disc for my new comp and i have 2 problems.

1. its 738MB so i cant dl it to the cd’s i have cuz they only hold 700MB.

2. the only way i can open it is with alcohol 52% becuase is a MDS FILE but when i use it to install a operating system on my new comp. im obviously not going to have alcohol 52% to help. how do i get it so it is just the real thing on the disc?

iso file is just a cd burn… i meant to modify it by deleting junk so that it’ll fit… also you can just burn it on dvd.
