How do I open a .bin file?

[Bullit]

Sometimes I run them under hot water so the lid expands a bit. If that fails I just get mom to open it.

I think you have to burn it to a cd. Was there also a cue file that yuo downloaded along with the bin?

 

[BangedUp]

I believe there should be a cue sheet along with the bin file, but give this a try.

I use nero so it may be a little different for you.

-File

-Burn Image

-All images in drop down menu

-Select your bin file

A box should pop up, make sure raw data is selected.

-Click Ok

-Proceed as normal with the burning process.

Not completely sure this will work, but it couldnt hurt to try.

no u need a .cue file. It's an ISO which needs to be burned. They usually have it with the bin file but they can be created by you also. I just don't remember how to do it...do a search on google...

I recall something similar when I was installing the BeOS operating system. The .bin files may be file system images. You could burn each file to its own CD, using the raw mode in your CD burner program. You could also try to mount the .bin files as file systems if you have Unix or something similar.

i have Nero Express.... god dammit....... how do I do it on there?

"Disk image or saved project"?

"Data" ----> "Data Disk" ?


dammit how do I make a .cue file? Can I use notepad?

Disk Image

Isn't there a button labeled "nero" to switch over to the regular nero?

 

[BangedUp]

There is a Nero button, but it only brings up the Nero info...


When I did "disk image", I couldn't find a .bin in any of the lists... and then I tried "all files" and the motherfucking cunt thing didn't accept the file........... FUCKCKCKFKFKFKFKFKFKUCKFFUCKFG

What was it that you downloaded?

It looks as if you are going to need the cue file.

I think you can burn it directly using FireBurner...

If not then download winiso (www.winiso.com) and convert the file from bin to iso...
Then, when you have the ISO file, go to (in Nero) File - Burn Image - and chose the ISO file....

Forgot all about those two programs.

Great suggestions.

or........

you can download Daemon tools, and virtually mount the .bin file as a virtual CD.

Damn it. just get a bin to Iso converter.
You can download those little programs for free at many sites.
