    when you extract it is it an .iso file? if so just burn saved image or save project then select the file, *make sure you have, burn: "disc-at-once" option selected, not "track-at-once" *

    if not, if you extract just all the system files like you would see if you were to stick the real cd in your cd drive. then burn just a normal data disc and you should be ok.

    well i hope i made sense, good luck :thumbsup:

    i have a few questions. these rar's most likely contain .avi or .mpg files. i assume you know what .rar's are. if not, they are just like zips, but instead of using winzip, you use winrar to extract them. anyway, they MIGHT contain .iso's, but i doubt it. if you just want to burn them to cd, you can just use the nero express wizard to do that. and if you actually just want the iso, you could burn with the image recorder to an iso. but, im not sure why you would want to do that unless you were specifically trying to make an SVCD which requires a bit more work. anyway, lemme know if this makes sense . . .

    drowd, he never mentioned videos. A lot of ISO's I've downloaded have been put into a RAR archive, as it's got a CRC to let you know if the archive is corrupt before you go wasting time with the ISO.

    Anyway, you should just extract the ISO with WinRAR and then depending on which version of Nero you have, go to File > Burn Image or Recorder > Burn Image. Select the image and let it burn. It's fairly straightforward once you get the ISO's extracted.

    yeah, there are several ways to do this. if you dont want to burn to a cd, you can use daemon tools or alcohol 120% to mount the image so that it appears as if the iso were burned and in a cd tray in your computer. the other thing you can do if you want to browse the contents of the iso is get an app called isobuster.

    sorry for the confusion before, but in the apps, etc i download, i rarely see just one .RAR file, but rather multiple parts in 15 or 50 meg segments, and when people label apps as cd1 it is usually just 1, and movies that are in more than one part are labeled cd1 or cd2. i was just trying to get to what he actually wanted.

    anyway, i hope that helps :D
