I have a video file that I wanna burn onto a disk, its too large so I was wondering if there was a program that could divide a media file into parts?

You could use some compression program like WinRAR, and split it into parts that way. I think this is the most straightforward option that also saves room by compressing the file.

This is a good suggestion if the video file is in a format that virtualdub can open.

Use 'direct stream copy' and then select several regions of the video and save as. If you are not careful though, you will either have overlap in between sections, or holes that get skipped.

When you say burn to a disc, do you mean burn for storage/transfer or burn for viewing, because if you intend to burn it for viewing then hjsplit and winrar are not viable.

Winrar, I'll give some steps because no one else seems to be doing it.

1. Right click your file that you want to split, click on add to archive

2. Bottom left it says "Split to volume, bytes". They have a couple of presets that you can select, basically this is how big you want each part to be. Winrar also recognizes abbreviations like "M" for megabyte and K for "kilobyte". So for example if you want each part to be 650mb then you type "650m" into that box and press ok.

3. Winrar will now make a copy of your file and split it into as many parts as it needs to be. Obviously the last part is usually going to be less than 650mb.

4. To extract the file from the parts, put all the parts into the same directory, open any one of them up, select the file inside and click extract.

command line programs are tough, but they tend to be very very powerful if you know how to use them

Yes, and btw open source also exists on Windows and commandline programs also exist on Windows so I don't really get that comment. Windows Server 2008 even lets you have a GUI (Explorer)-less installation, requiring you to use only the commandline. This is of course modelled after Linux/Unix.
Surely there are also GUI tools for that task but I always use the "split" command in both Linux and Windows. I'll give an usage example later (and where to get it), it's really not hard. Gotta go now.

FYI - The "split" command exists on OS X as well.

I like this one since it creates the recombine program automatically, so you don't need any special software on the other computer.
