Reply: (edit)Depends on what it's "supposed" to be - it's a common extension - and where you got it In the context of gaming, a BIN (& CUE) file generally indicates a CD image, much like an ISO - burn with your favourite burning program or mount with a virtual drive app (Nero (full version) does both) - daemon tools is popular (many more) - your choice may depend on whether or not you need to circumvent copy protection, and what kind We've heard that a million monkeys at a million keyboards could produce the complete works of Shakespeare; now, thanks to the Internet, we know that is not true

Reply: (edit)... kinda what I'd thought Not really my area of expertise - I would assume it is a CD image from its size alone, but BIN files (afaik) usually come with an important CUE file too. You can try daemon tools or scout around for some other CD emulator and see if one or another will mount the image. If your BitTorrent source (or wherever) has a forum or FAQ sheet or comments, might try checking there - no comments in the RAR?

Reply: (edit)Daemon tools loads the CUE file when opening one of those - but both files should be in the same folder - you'll see once you start it up and mount the image, it'll create a virtual CD or DVD drive with its own letter Should be one BIN & one CUE per disc image Hard to say why it didn't work for you - could be a system problem, bad download or something else again - try some different applications, if none work, bad d/l seems most likely We've heard that a million monkeys at a million keyboards could produce the complete works of Shakespeare; now, thanks to the Internet, we know that is not true

Reply: (edit)Oh Rax - don't you have anything better to do than make foolish statements that reveal your ignorance? ... I suppose not CUE & BIN files, virtual CD drives and WinRAR are all legitimate Windows applications and concepts - so my advice to you is to tell someone who cares Daemon Tools download page If that doesn't work, try Googling for other apps, or see if you can burn it We've heard that a million monkeys at a million keyboards could produce the complete works of Shakespeare; now, thanks to the Internet, we know that is not true

Reply: (edit)If magicISO has the capability of mounting ISO images, I don't think you need to be looking all around for the 'evil' tool.

Reply: (edit)Yeah - that should have worked, but it's not like there's a shortage of applications that work with CD images As mentioned, the file may be corrupt We've heard that a million monkeys at a million keyboards could produce the complete works of Shakespeare; now, thanks to the Internet, we know that is not true
