    a good program that i use to decompress .rar files is WinAce (freeware). If you run your program and it says that it was unpacked but no files are showing then you have one of two things: 1)you got bad .rar files or 2)Your decompressor program isnt working properly.

    is it a rar file or an iso that you are trying to extract?

    moved to correct forum as not a pc hardware issue.
    psykospun, edit your sig to conform to forum specs ASAP. yours is a total of 66,014 bytes.
    2. An image-only signature should be less than 50kb in size, and be at most 500 pixels wide and 200 pixels tall.

    WinAce compreses them into .rar or .zip files. If you want to make an ISO out of the files then you gotta use an ISO maker program. i.e. MagicISO, UltraISO, etc. Alot of these programs arent freeware so if you want one, google it or go download them from the usual sites.
