If it is a image you can extract using winISO and then just run it from your hard drive.

Have you unrared the files yet?

[notorious19]

yea got bins and cues in another folder

[namzuf9]

Right, d/l a program called alcohol 120%, it allows you to create virtual drives on your pc, so you can run the bin file as if it was a normal cd-rom but with the advantage of running it at a faster speed than what a cd drive is capable of. I dont have the link try googling it.

YES !!! deamon tools will do you the trick. just start it. then right click on the icon at your taskbar, select ViRTUAL CD/DVD ROM, DEVICE 0: [E] NO MEDIA, M O U N T I M A G E and select the image u have (bin, iso, etc.)
