CD to DVD???

I was thinking... DVDs hold more than CDs, correct... Is it possible to take UAKM or Pandora and convert them over to a DVD??? Is there a program that will do this for me???
I'm just trying to think of ways to keep from swapping CDs all the time...
Appreciate the Help, thanks...

Check out Wintermute's HD/DVD Custom Installers on this board.
HD/DVD Installer for Under A Killing Moon
http://www.unofficialtexmurphy.com/mess ... ?f=3&t=663
HD/DVD Installer for The Pandora Directive
http://www.unofficialtexmurphy.com/mess ... ?f=3&t=667
Both files can be downloaded from
http://cd-2-dvd.com in the Custom Installers.
Also, I have a working fix for the CD Version of Overseer (no disc swapping). I'ld be more than happy to share. Wintermute want to make a Custom Installer and complete the trilogy?

I made a DVD of Pandora Directive a long time ago using this but never played it until now. I am having the problem with it asking for DISK #4 when trying to view items at Roswell. I could resort to the old disk swapping, but is there an easy way to fix this? I burned it to a DVD-RW, so I hope I don't have to reburn everything, and I am not sure how to avoid this. Can you give a more detailed explanation of the problem and the solution?

More than likely your orignal CD was scratched and a file went missing.
It's even easier to just make ISOs of the discs and use doxbox.... since Access made it real easy to claim you had say 6 CD drives...

I think you could try the old tactic of copying the CDs onto the HD (on the installed folder).
You just had to copy all the .AP files, choosing the ones with larger size when you had 2 different files with the same name.
If you burn the folder to a DVD, you have a 'default installation' media.
I don't know the game searches for those .ap files, I think it searches the installation folder, then the disc in the drive, then askes for the right media. I don't know if that applies also to UAKM.
