I have a Mac .dmg image I need to write to DVD but only have access to windows. Can any one recommend a free utility to write it to dvd or convert it to .iso reliably seeing I only have one shot at this then I'm out of double layer dvds.

By the looks of things yes, the contents however is greek to me
Well you don't need to read the contents... just open it to folders and then use another program to make the image.

Question: How can burn dmg file in windows?
Answer
You can use TransMac. This software allows you to mount .dmg files within Windows XP and burn to cd/dvd.
Here is the link to their website: http://www.asy.com/scrtm.htm

TransMac seems to have problems with burning double layer DVDs. If you're not satisfied with that, or would like to use NERO instead anyway, then I'm almost sure, that the expanded dmg file is in fact identical with an iso image. So expand the file, and rename it to iso, and use another burner to burn the bastard!!!!!!
I in fact used ultraiso to convert the dmg to iso (to expand it), but the resulting file is exactly the same size that of created by transmac. moreover, transmac calls expanding as "converting to iso".
So, try at your own risk, but i think that would work.
Hope that helped

I'll skip Transmac seeing there are issues with double layer dvd's.
Simply expanding the file in 7-zip is not an option as I end up with 5 different files.
Busy converting with UltraISO & will try to write with ImgBurn.
Thanks for the info
