I downloaded an ISO. Now what to do with it? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I tried to burn it onto a cd with nero and i have burned two coasters, but they are empty? is there any program i can use to see what the iso actually is before i go on a coaster spree?

Usually have to convert to a .bin file with a .cue file. Nero will load the cue and burn accordingly.

what program can i use to convert it to a bin? my nero doesnt seem to recognize the iso. also winrar is default to open up the iso but it just gives me a read error. is this normal?

Download a prog called Demon tools, it creats a "fake" drive and loads the cd image, then goto nero or whatever, and copy that "fake" drive and burn it on a cd.

rancid240 · 03-08-2003, 02:07 PM

thanks i will try it out and let you know.

rancid240 · 03-08-2003, 03:59 PM

winiso said it cant convert a large iso file (>100mb)....

how can i burn an iso with nero if it wasnt ripped originally by nero? or is there a program that will convert the large iso to bin?

rancid240 · 03-08-2003, 04:29 PM

k i got it converted to a bin. i will see what nero does with it. i dont think winiso makes cue files, right?

rancid240 · 03-08-2003, 04:31 PM

nevermind, it made the cue files, but there is nothign set as the default application for it.

Welcome to the world of computers. Sometimes you just have to play around with the file names and import/export new things to get them to work. I have been getting my MCSE for a while and still never fails i always have to come up with a new way to do things. Always remember though you can't break it, someone can fix it if you mess it up. Just don't use a hammer on it LOL. Just my .02

yah i tried with daemon tools, wincdr, etc etc. set up fake drives to run the iso as a cd, and after all that i figure i have a bad iso...it starts to install the program and then comes up with an error and closes.

if this iso is warez, and has different install options (ie: minimum, recommended, full), try minimum. That's worked, I've heard.

I am gonna borrow the first cd and burn my own iso and use my virtual drive to install it, but you know how some people can be about letting anyone borrow stuff

yet thats probably a good thing since i have a midterm this week.......
