im not very 1337 with that you just said, but let me see if i hit the ball:
break the .iso up into 2 parts compress it seprately, then burn it onto ONE disk (becuase it's all i have left. lol)
if not, please explain how that would work.
Thanks.

Its Sims 3. she just needs to drag the ISO into her desktop, mount, and install. not install from the disk.

split it into 2 dvd size files, put one on the DVD and the other on the USB flash drive.
