Stacy, I think a normal DVD should be able to hold the official Win 10 
ISO. Based on your wording (though I may be wrong), I think you may not 
be using the file the way it's intended. An ISO file isn't meant to be 
copied onto a blank DVD the way you would normally use a DVD to store 
regular documents. Instead, it's supposed to be used with a special 
program and "imaged" onto a blank disk. There's instructions for burning 
a DVD from an ISO available on microsoft's "Software Download FAQ" page 
here: 
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/faq?f35cee63-39e4-4f62-9f80-b7c791faff43=True&6b280068-671a-4e8d-85df-48b6419ef84d=True 
(Windows > "I've downloaded an ISO file, now what?").

Hope this helps!

Eli
