A .bin file is basically an image of a disc.

Nero can burn this image with no problems.

You can also use WinISO to open it up and extract it's contents to a folder and burn them from there if you're having trouble. Just ensure that the disc is named EXACTLY as it is when you open up the .bin in WinISO.

Nero is the easier option though.

dude....there is no need to burn anything. First of all which version of the game do you have? emporio? secondly all the instructions to run the game are in the nfo file..you have to update your files to the current version(#5) apply the cracks and sign up with steam. Change your steamapp.cfg file with your steam info. Change your css shortcut icon with the line "C:\Program Files\CounterStrike Source\hl2.exe" -steam -console -game cstrike

Seems you're not the only one having these problems as someone has posted the same question on their (German?) forums... No answer was given though.

However, I found this: http://217.196.72.116/board/thread.php?postid=23844#post23844 confirming my original guess :lol:

You do not need this. All you need to do is associate "NFO" files with notepad, or Right Click>Open with Notepad.

Notepad is for lazy people.

NFO's were designed in ASCII art, so were actually made to be viewed that way.
