    Hi
    A friend asked me to burn a single phx-mstb file. Unfortunately, I have no experience burning these files. Is it possible to burn the file and if so, what software does one use.
    Thanks

    1. If you initially have a ZIP/RAR/ACE file you must first extract it (using something like WinRAR which can handle all three). There may be recursively zipped files. Odds are you have a whole bunch of files that are compressed with the extensions 001, 002, 003 or something like that... just pick any random one (or the smallest one) and extract that one... the rest of them will autotmatically be queued up

    2. If (or when) you have a BIN/CUE or ISO file (or a single file that is about the size of a CD), that is a called a CD image. you need to burn this.

    3. If the file is a game (i'm not familiar with 'mstb') you may need to account for protection. I have links at the bottom for all this. If there is protection on the CD dont trust Nero/Easy CD Creator to be able to do the job.

    Hi

    Thanks for the advice. It isn't a game as far as I know

    THanks

    Well if it isnt a game then you probably will not have any issues burning it. Just extract the files (if needed) and burn away as an image.
