Hi People,
I've never 'done' games before. So i downloaded an ISO file as I read you just burn the image onto disc and its straight forward.
Problem is though, When I used Winrar to open it, it has loads of files rather than just an image file!!
what am I doing wrong?? Or is it a fake ISO?

UnRar every WinRar file in the same folder. After doing so click view>arrange icons by name. Now locate the first WinRar file (should be something like this: r.00). Right click that file and click extract here.

You can use burnatonce and add each individual files and burn to a cd-r. I noticed the game is "Sims" and there is a crack folder (probably a no cd patch). After you burn and install the game, locate the crack folder and copy& paste the crack to the directory to where you installed the game. Example: C:\Program Files\Maxis\The Sims. To launch the game most likely you'll have to do this by using the "no cd crack" in that folder and that's why I hate cracked backups.

Thanks Mate!
I see you prefer other methods rather than the no cd crack way. As I'm new, I dont know the options.
Ideally I would like a copy that works exactly like the original, but is that possible?
Or whats your prefered method?
PS I have Nero, so do I still require Burnatonce?

You can use Nero to accomplish this task m8.

A backup of the "original" image(s) . Note that the backups are not "true backups", but "modified". The "modified" backups need no crack(s). What is the name brand and model of your burner? If you own a "2 sheep burner" then your all set but if you own a "1 sheep" burner then you would need the aid of emulation to play backups of the "original" image of a pc protected cd (game). Most recommended brand name "2 sheep burners".

Well since your copy has a nocd file, you wont have to worry about having to make perfect backups (which i dont think your burner can do because I would imagine it is a one-sheeper ;-P )
