    hi people,

    appologies if this is in the wrong section.

    i have downloaded a torrect file. a 3gig rar based file. the contents of the download are 46 rar files and 1 nfo file. When i try to extract the file it says i need a 47th rar file. Have checked the download and the complete file has downloaded when comparing the total kb's.

    when extracting the the file it transfers to an iso file. Have tried breaking the operation once it hits the 47th file. Doing this i end up with a single iso file.

    have not dealt with iso files before so i might be missing something obvious as im not sure how to create a watchable dvd from this format.


    please someone help !
    the file is for the kids, and their realy cheesed of now it wont work. took days to donwload the 3gig and really aint looking forward to repeating it if the file has been corrupt in any way.

    Shouldn't be possible for a torrent download to be corrupt. Looks like maybe someone forgot to pack the 47th rar file. If so then someone probably released a new torrent with it included by now.
