how do i burn bin files to cd? I downloaded a game and it was a bin file. I have nero.
HELP!!!! This is driving me crazy!!!

Hey First of all you need a cue file too.
you want to cancel the wizard and goto File then goto Burn Image. Goto the directory where the bin and cue files are. it will burn them for you.

i dont see any cue files? Where are they? How do I get one? When I open the burn image in nero it doesnt show my file in the folder that it is in. On file type it is set to image files amd has nrg,iso and cue showing but not the bin file.

You don't really need the cue file.. so long as you have the .bin file, you should be fine.. Open Nero.. go to FILE ---> Burn image.. it should open a window where you will need to browse through your files to get to the directory that has the .bin file in it.. make sure you have selected "(*.*)all files" from the 'file type' pull down menu at the bottom of the window or you won't be able to see your .bin file, much less select it... it also might ask you to set the block size to 2352 just before you burn it.. don't worry, bero's pretty idiot proof, it should burn okay.. in some instances, after it has burned, there will be a small error note that says "burn process failed"... don't worry, you should stil have a working cd

If i'm not totally mistaken, there are (at least) some image files that have a block size of 2048 but i do agree, for most of the stuff you will encounter 2352 is a safe bet

Hi! i really need ur help guys. i downloaded Fifa 2003 from KaZaA. it comes with two .bin files--> fifa 2003 CD1 and CD2. I was able to burn cd 1 which is 538 MB to cd but i cant burn the second cd that is 704 MB to cd. Actually i could burn it with Nero but when i try to use it it gives me errors. i need ur help please. its making me crazy. i messed up 2 cds. can u guys help me please?

Hey farshad..i know how to do this now...download the bin file then you need to get a program called WinISO, you can download it off of kazaa. Then all you need to do is convert the bin file to a ISO file then burn the iso to a cd. BAM! You have it! You might need to get a no cd crack for some games.

I almost forgot, use cdrwin5 to burn the iso and make sure the block is set at 2352 with the raw box checked!

Why would you have to convert it to ISO?
Farshad: what speed are you burning it at? Try burning it slower! 704MB is no big deal!

i'm burning it a the speed of X44 with Nero.
i could burn the file but i have problem openning the cd. it gives me error that is about the cd is corrupt or its not useable for windows.

hey here's an idea - go buy the game!!! You cannot discuss downloading games here, this is piracy and not allowed.

not all games r copyrighted

well, the thing is, we're not really talking about copying software, we're talking about burning ISO's... if one of those ISO's happens to be a copywrited software, then oh well... and in response to your suggestion... I would buy the software, but that would mean I would have to get a job, but I'm too lazy to do that... so OH WELL, guess I'll just have to steal it... ;-D

so OH WELL, guess I'll just have to steal it

*shock* That attitude isnt appreciated.

BTW, Farshad: you are burning too fast. Slow 'er down to 8x

well the last time i checked - FIFA2003 WAS copywritted.
stewie - oh well, guess you'll get banned from this forum

Darnthnip- we've all copied games and software at one point or another, what do think the point of this forum is for!? making ISO's for AOL coasters? and you seem to know enough about this, to have done it yourself.. so don't start acting like you're above everyone else. occationaly, if the game or software title is good enough ,i actually go out and buy it, but for the most part they aren't, or they're total rip offs, in which case i get rid of them.

Stewie - what I do does not concern you at all. Sure i can do it, but I dont. I also got the power to rob a bank or overthrow a small government, but i dont. but that is not the point. the point is the site has rules, and the rules will be followed or the violators will be banned. plain and simple. I'm not acting like i'm above anyone, but i do follow the rules of this forum, and so will you. This forum is here for people to make legit backups of their games, we do not condone the discussion of piracy here.

Stewie: Consider this as a warning and take an advice from darthnip's words. We have rules and we expect everybody to accept and follow the rules -- this is our site and if we decide that we require everybody to write all the sentences backwards, that's our decision and ours only.

Darthnip, Quote - "when you unpack craxtion, it should be like the 8th one down (including the 3 folders) it's call ISOCraxtion.exe and it's 256kb."

yet you aid other people with programs like Craxtion which is used solely used for making XBOX ISO's which are ALWAYS copywrighted...

Making backups of stuff that you own is perfectly legal in most Western countries and that's what the site focuses on.

And to clarify, darthnip is not in "we", as he doesn't have any relationship with AfterDawn Ltd whatsoever other than being a user of our site.

And you can accuse us for hypocrisy, but then again, that's youw opinion and you're perfectly entitled to that one. We don't try to force people to think like we do, we simply want people to follow the rules. Rules are there for purpose. If I visit your home and you don't want people to take a dump on your living room floor and you specifically mention about the fact that you don't wish people to do that -- what you think if I unzip the pants and do my things on the floor anyway?

I hope this clarified the issue a bit.

I don't really care what you do.. just don't be hypocrites about it like darknip, I would think it annoys most people and wastes there time. AND! nowhere in this thread did I give any specifics about copying ANY COPYWRITED software or there titles, I gave my opinion on it, and as you so eloquently put it.. "...i'm perfectly entitled to it"

Yes you are. I am always concerned of individuals who have the urge of announce "Yep, I just downloaded Matrix 3 as DVD-R Screener copy, darn it was good" to the world. We. Simply. Don't. Care.

Take it that I got a bit alarmed of your attitude in couple of posts even though you didn't specifically violate any rules -- if you would know the "industry", you could imagine what is the level of pressure we, as the site's owners, are to maintain the site squeky-clean, cleaner of piracy than goddamn Yahoo. We are in the radar of various big bad guys -- been there for years -- and we know it. If it means that users need to be -- from their point of view -- hypocritical, so be it; one great thing about Net is the thing that no one forces any one to visit any particular site (well, except Microsoft's IE forces you to visit MSN, but..) :-)

But anyway, I hope that you understand our position and respect it -- we want all of our users to play nicely and share the sandbox and toys in peace ;-)

thankyou, I don't think you could cram anymore condescendence in that many words, I congradulate you :) I'm sorry you have a problem with my attitude, many people do, probably because I'm always going in there homes and taking a big dump on their living room rugs :-D BUT HEY C'est La Vie! I realize you have to keep your site squeeky clean, and i actually do respect that. I myself would like to know how this forum turn from a discussion on ISO's to an argument about mention of copywrite infringement.. OH WAIT!, Because some people always have to answer questions that nobody asks! ESPECIALLY when they themselves engaged in topics that involved copywright infringement. As i said before, I never gave any specifics about copying ANY COPYWRITED software or there titles. I'm quite familiar with the technicalities and rules when it comes to matters such as duplication of softwate, etc.. so quit wasting your time.

Well said Boss!

Stewie: perhaps you think you are being cool or whatnot but one day, when you have to get a job and pay for your own rent and food and whatnot you will realize the importance of money. Perhaps then you will respect the amount of work being put into developing these games or whatever (however crappy as they may be) -- those people are just trying to make a living thats all. I must confess I was once like that... thinking I was all l33t for having all sorts of "goodies" but then i found out that nobody gives a rats ass if you have a bazillion titles of software -- except maybe for copyright lawyers but you dont want their attention.

You say you would get a job and would buy the game but the fact is your last comment, you talk about stealing. And you call Darthnip a hypocrit?! Again, perhaps one day when you get a job and have responsibilities and such you will realize how immature and hypocritical those comments are! Stealing is a childish activity that most decent people grow out of after their mother catch them with their hands in the cookie jar or trying to pilfer something from the candy store. Then there are other who think it is cool.

Silly u.... questions may not have answers but answers always have questions to go with them ;)

guys, you all know me and where i stand, dont waste your time on another backpeddler like this one. it's only a matter of time till he gets banned anyway.
Stewie i would have never said a word on this thread if i didn't see something that would possibly effect aD. and that would be the mention of downloading FIFA2003 from kazaa, no matter how you want to phrase your views on it, that still is not allowed here. and my original post was not even directed at you, it was directed at farshad for posting about FIFA2003, so YOU, my friend are the one that butted in, not me. but you know what, it really doesn't matter at all. I will continue to step in when I see something that should not be here, and i will still help when the users when it's needed. i'll be here long after you're gone, so good luck in your ventures man, but you are the one wasting your time. cheers
