    Hi,
    I'm a complete novice trying to play a video game on PC that was received in multi-volume RAR files (part1, part2, etc.). I run 7Zip and extracted ALL 6 volumes since I don't know how EXACTLY to tell which of the 6 contains the MAIN RAR extension. How do I play these damn things???!!!! They open with 7Zip but where do I go from there to actually see an image and hear sound? I would greatly appreciate some help.
    Thank you

    Use WinRar and you won't have to worry about it since WinRar will figure it out automatically.

    dailun,
    First, thank you for your response.
    Although I had tried WinRar unsuccessfully before, I decided to give you the benefit of the doubt and re-ran the files with it. As it stands, I now have the following showing on C:drive:
    1 hi-installpatch.exe 72KB-application.
    1 hi-installpatch.txt 1KB-text document
    6 TOTAL game files,(w/WinRar book icons), that are 98,078KB- WinRar archive. 1 of these 6 files (the last one) is only 21,026KB-WinRar archive.
    1 game file 511,415KB-WinRar archive.
    and lastly,
    1 TRT.iso 651,572KB-ISO file.
    So, where do I go from here without making a mess of all this? Thanks again.

    Your extraction appears to be done and complete.

    Read the .txt file, and use imgburn to burn the .iso to a disk.

    Since it also appears that you are trying to patch a pirated game torrent, I will not help you beyond that.
