DVD burning issues using windows vista
OK so im, backup data out of my laptop. I have about 2 GB ready to be burned onto a dvd and I got a file over to burn was that of 600 MB should adjustment no problem at all but for some reason, vista tells me my dvd is full makes no sence so I burned dvd and went to my next dvd using the 600 MB file and it let me fill the full capacity of 4.7 GB dvd does vista sometimes to put a ghost or sometihng file that won't allow me to fill the disc ive met this problem once before and this is no his almost random logic
Hi cocknballs4u,
Try to copy the files in one shot and check if you still get the error message.
Given that the issue occurs at random times, I suggest that you can delete the temporary files that are created by the burning.
Navigate to the following location and delete them all the files in the temporary folder burn.
Then delete temporary files on the computer.

"About MSDN or TechNet product key
They are genuine Microsoft product keys, they are in fact retail licenses, but it is expected for a product specific Microsoft Software Developer Network (MSDN) and TechNet channel for professionals who pay a subscription. The main objective is for evaluation purposes. The big thing to their subject, unlike Microsoft, MSDN or TechNet keys evaluation software expires. Because the agreement by virtue of which the subscription is provided is a single license, none of the software should be distributed outside of it. Although its $50,000 worth of licenses, it is for one person only for use and no one else. Unfortunately, no matter the conditions of license, people still abuse of the program, two key product gift or sell on auction sites. Microsoft it issues licences in good faith that customer will not do it, but I guess human nature win on.In your case, what has probably happened is, you bought a license MSDN key, which carries up to 10 activations unlike packed full of retail licenses which carry 1 activation. The person who sold it to you probably sold to 10 other people. Somewhere along the way, one of these people could have installed on a second system activated, because it went past 10 activation threshold, Microsoft has detected that he was abused and blocked the key for later use. »

FAT32 formatting for 500 GB Seagate external hard drive using Windows Vista
How to format FAT32 file system for 500 GB Seagate external hard drive using Windows Vista?
Hi MVRMVR,
Windows will work generally only format a drive in FAT 32 if it has a capacity of 32GB, no more. To format in FAT32, Yes, would need to create multiple partitions. This, of course, you don't want to do.
I have not tried to format a large drive in FAT 32 but I guess that any third-party partitioning software (Acronis, Paragon etc.) would be able to do it without any problem. Alternatively you can do it from the Windows command prompt. For more details, see the link below:
