there is a software called UHARC which can compress to a gr8 extent but im not sure whether it can compress Gigabytes into kilobytes. worth trying once though. the software is available here : *brhack.net/mulder/public/downloads/UHARC_GUI.2005-11-24.exe

What kind of stupid program is it? I downloaded, tried to compress an mpg file of 30 MB It took more than 40 minutes ( not a typo) to compress 50% of the file and file size is 15.5 MB :? another 45 minutes counts upto 1.5 hours to compress 1 file :? :? :? :?

The compression depends on the structure of the file.......

For example you cannot compress a compressed 200 Mb ZIP file by WinRAR or any other program to make it smaller........ It may be compressed to some extent but not much......

WinRAR is a very good compression program but it is a shareware....... Well, if you can tolerate Nags, you can even use it for free........
With the "Best" compression mode, it can do a good job.........

If you think anything of 200 Mb can be converted to 100 Mb or such, then you need to learn more.......

Just look at this for some surpries:
*crackmes.de/users/khattam/khattam_s_what_is_my_password_v14_copy_me_to_hdd/

Basically, it is a crackme but you can see some compression.........

The 200+ Mb file has been compressed to few kb..... This has worked to such an extent coz the compressed ISO file contains very little data and other parts are virtually blank (=other bytes are empty or similar)

ok.. i heard something like that..... first you make a best compression.. after that u have to make a hex-edit to making the file size..... is it possible.. cuz doing that, chance to damage the file.. m i right?

That's obvious,because MPEG itself is a compressed format,so u won't be able to acheive a high compression ratio.

In context of games, the mini image can be the image of a 650MB ISO file, which comes to around 60KB or so.
There is no compression involved in it.

Basically, the game checks the start of a disc for "bad sectors". If they are there then the game is thought to be authentic and the game will start. When you read a full image you are reading the "bad sectors" at the start as well as all the other data.
The problem is that all the install data etc that takes up over 99% of the space, this data is not needed to start the game, only to install it.

What a mini-image does is keep only the data at the start that is used too authenticate the original disc.

The truth is that a torrent utility program can compress any gigawatt of file (docs, music, film, pics, program) into kilobytes. See *www.what-is-torrent.com/ and *en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BitTorrent For the rest of you...don't be so arrogant to assume you know everything, asserting that such a thing doesn't exist or the user is mistaken. Whatever the mind of man can imagine, it exists! :-D
