  1. Latest Windows 10 Install media ISO file too large to burn to DVD


    The stock answer to this problem is "use a flash drive". However, there are those of us who have antediluvian PCs whose bios does not support booting from USB flash drives. I thought that putting the install media on a bootable internal or external HDD might be a solution but I am having difficulty implementing that solution. I've followed all of the recommended steps for creating a bootable HDD, but have had no luck. Perhaps one of our resident experts could detail the correct procedure, and perhaps also show how to get Windows Boot Manager to recognise the install package as a valid target.

  2. Windows ISO file too large to burn

    I just downloaded a Media Creation Tool. I then downloaded Windows ISO file. When I try to burn the ISO file to a DVD it says the file is too large to burn. New DVD never used.
    The version is 20H2.size is 4,784,256 KB
    The laptop that the file was downloaded to has Windows 10 Pro 20h2 build 19042.572
    the reason I am trying to use a DVD instead of a USB stick is that when installing from a stick it shuts off WIFI on two other machines and I cannot figure what is causing that.

    Windows ISO file too large to burn

    You need to use Windows 10 Home Single Language version as per your System 32bit or 64 bit and also try to download the smaller ISO file.I also recommended updating your driver or download DVD burn driver.
