I just recieved a game from a friend in the US. he transfeered it to me. it turns out that the game is in a bunch of "e-bout" files. Anybody know of any software or anything that can burn these files? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You should have an "ebout.rar" file with those files. They are Winrar volumes for Burnout 3. I *may* have seen those posted on usenet like that. Use Winrar to unpack.
If for some reason you don't have a .rar file included, just open the .001 file with winrar and it will go from there.

Hope the mention of usenet doesn't get be banned on my first post. Just trying to help a guy out.

Strange that you cannot just ask your friend how to burn these files.

Someone has already posted the answer, which is to use WinRar. This will probably create an ISO file or similar which you then burn to DVD.

If you can't use WinRar then don't bother posting on this board.

Friend or no friend, you have pirated game. If you like it then buy it.
