I downloaded a game and the files are...

[mrfreeze]

.001 files...to .034 and I also have a .srv

what do I do with that??

[DarkPhantom]

It's quite easy, really. The .001 to .034 files, are the compressed .bin and .cue files. You just have to open the .001 file with the adequate program. I use WinAce Archiver, since it can decompress RAR and Ace files, the most common ones. The .sfv file is used to check if the files you downloaded have CRC errors, or are clean of it. You can use a little program, called QuickSFV to check the integrity of your files. This are the basics. You should download the .nfo file too (if you didn't...). It contains useful information about the game and what to do with the files.


Hope it helped...

after I use a prog like Nero CD Burner and burn the cd? or I need to use WinISO?

and thanks a lot for the help you already gave me...I'm just new to all this...

[DarkPhantom]

After that you will have two files (I hope...) - a .bin and a .cue - to work with. After that, you need to make a .iso file. You may use BINChunker for that efect. Just load the .cue file with it and then convert it to a .iso one, using the .bin . You should now have a fully .iso file. Now you can use Nero to burn the image (the .iso file) to a cd. Use the cd-at-once (or something like that) when burning, so it can make an exact copy of the .iso file.

I know that there are lots of different ways to do this, and some of them probably a lot easier, but this is how I do it for now...

Hope it helped...

P.S. Be sure you browse around the tutorial section. It may contain some very useful hints and tricks to do most of the things you want!

Just upped BINChunker. It's a really tiny program, but because I had a hard time finding a working version, I just uploaded it 0)

WHOA,  
Did someone say "make an ISO out of a BIN/CUE fileset and then burn with Nero" ? ? ? ?    

That would be doing it arsebackward...
As Nero can burn Bin/cue files directly.
In the filemenu choose Burn CD, and then select the Cue file and burn away (I use Nero version 5.5.6.4).

About .001 to .0xx files.
Use Winace as the man says.
Or rename .001 to .rar and unrar it, when it ask for the next file just enter .002, it normally finds the remaining files itself.

Hope this helps  ;D
