I downloaded a lot of files which are supposed to make up one iso but they are .bin and I think 1 .cue file, what do I do with them?
Thank You

1) boot windows
2) load cdrwin or fireburner
bin/cue burning so far has only progs in windows as far as i know

Oh k thanks. Will the demo versions of those work? Can't Nero do it? Btw, why is it like lots of files and now one file like ISO's?

A bin file is a "proprietary" (read: non-standard) format to burn an entire CD. The cue file basically tells the burning software how to burn the .bin file.

You need CDRWIN to burn a .bin/.cue file. CDRWIN runs beautifully with Wine so there is no need to boot to WIndows...
