I have download one file from the web but when I open this is contain the files .bin and. cue... What I do make for install this on my pc?????
 
I'm not positive onanything i sayon this post, but this is what i think.

Its either relzted to a .ISO some how or its compressed in someway, I dont rememebr but i think its one of those, either WinRAR(if tis compressed) or some type of ISO program(I think its related to a ISO more then compressed, im leaving towards this) should do it, try a shearch.

If he's going to burn the bin and cue to a cd, he definitely does not want to extract the files.

A bin and cue file set are very much like an ISO file. It's an image of a CD. The BIN is the binary contents of a CD, and the CUE is a text file that describes how to burn the BIN and what to call it.

To use it, you'll either mount the bin file using daemon tools, or you'll have to find a program that can burn a BIN/CUE properly. As I remember it, NERO could not do it, Alcohol 120 can burn it to CD or mount it, and Daemon tools could mount it.

Since you're dealing with a game you're probably going to want to burn it to an actual CD. It'll save you some hard drive space and free up some extra cycles and RAM to play the game with as opposed to mounting it as a new drive.
 
Can you specify which version for the person asking? The version I used last when I ditched Windows could not do it, but I do not remember which version I was using in order to specify.
 
we'll.. i currenly use NERO Ultra edition :)

Edit: its a version of Nero 6. but if im not mistaken,.. all versions of nero 6 can do it. (and, i though nero 5 couldnt )

My version was probably Nero 5 then. It's not been all that long ago that I ditched Windows, so one version out of date would make sense.

At any rate, I couldn't burn them with my copy, so I know it wasn't Nero 6.

If all the files are extracted using IsoBuster, then you can put them into Nero (data disc) and then you can burn it all normally. I've done it before and it all works fine.

Yes but just because you did it once and it works "fine" doesnt mean it will work ALL the time ... for instance, if the BIN file contained P-Q Subchannel data ... how would you preserve this upon extraction? (or a better question ... how would u configure nero to make use of the subchannel info? ;))

u need a program like azureus or something like that to download nad open files from isohunt.com

Keep it up and a bannerama is on the horizon. ;)

Nero isn't the only program i have..geez, who do you people think i am..:P
 
That still doesn't cover how you'd preserve the subchannel data.

Or, for that matter, how you'd ensure the naming of the CD was correct. That'd be what the cue does for you.
