Re: Help needed please.. Bin and Cue files

Ive downloaded some games via Torrents.. some have been install files,

do with these bin/cue files.. and I would really like to know how to
go about playing these games.

Can anyone help me with some info on how to begin to extract the games
from these files? I read somewhere that Nero was involved.. so does
that mean I have to burn the game to a DVD or CD?

Anyways, thanks for the help in advance

Cheers

Yes, .bin and .cue files (you need both files) make up a CD or DVD
image. Nero or many other CD/DVD burning programs will burn the files
to a disc.

Another option is to get a program like UltraISO to convert the files
to an .iso image which you can mount using Alcohol 120%. If you have a
Linux system available you could mount the .iso as a directory and
extract the individual files.
