Hope this helps,

I'm also using 700MB Sony CD-R...and Burning with Nero Ultra 6.0
What software are you using?
I noticed in the FAQ there was some issue with older versions of Adaptec's EZCD Creator because of incorrect file size reading. Updating to the newer version seems to correct this issue.
make sure you are finalizing the CD. If you don't finalize the CD, there won't be enough room for the images. I used Nero 6 Ultra as well with some cheap Optimum and Fuji Film CDRs from walmart's cheap bin!
I'll try it again - I'll even try it with Adaptec's EZ CD Creator, but I'm still puzzled how they will fit. Disk image 2 and 3 are both bigger than 710MB (714 and 710).

=========================
Hmmmm... my disk 2 and 3 .iso files are both just under 700MB.
Now you have me stumped!
I understand what you're saying, but my personal interpretation of file sizes has no impact on Nero and it's ability to burn.
Right?
Right.
For those of you who were standing by waiting to see if a real solution would be found, I recently upgraded Nero 6 to 6.3...and we're back in business.
Your problem is Nero. Its seeing the files as 1000 mb =1gig. Go get the patch from Nero. I had to fix this myself till I started burning with K3b. Once you get Mdk Installed try K3b its much better then EZ cd and Nero.
