If you use a cd-rw you can't overburn. If you don't want to remove anything you could use a cd-r with a slight overburn (only if it's 10-20 MB) or a DVDR(W) if it's more than that. The best solution IMO is to remove unneeded things like windows tour (takes a lot of space!) msn explorer; and maybe asian fonts. Then your image will fit on a cdrw. A last tip: do NOT use Nero for burning the image, but IMGBurn ( freeware)
