so angry you had to make another seperate thread on it

what the hell is the file originally, first of all (file extension) and why would extracting it create more than one file. that makes no sense.

if it made 30 files with the r1 r2 r3 then you extract one and it will compile an iso imagewhich you can then burn and play. try being very specific. i think i get what your saying.

ok dummy, here we go again. I'll spell it out for you real simple like so that you don't get so "angry" LOL.

If you have files that are numbered (they can have extensions like .001-.098 or .rar-.r01, .r02-.r45 etc.) then you have an iso that has been compressed and split in to multiple compressed files.

This is usually done using winrar. You can download and install winrar for free just google it.

After you have winrar installed you need to find the first file in the set. If your files have an extension that begin with "r" (like vortex-gmm.r01 etc) then the first file in the set will always be the file with the extension of ".rar". If you have a set that have extensions that are just numbers (like .001, .002, .003 etc) then the first file in the set is obviously ".001"

Once you find the first file in the set and after you have installed winrar, you simply use the right mouse button and drag that first file to a blank spot in the window. A menu will popup when you let go of the right mouse button and ask you what you want to do. Select any of the extraction options that have the red stack of books icon of winrar next to them. Winrar will fire up and start rejoining the compressed files into an .iso file. If the extracted file has an extension of .wii then you have to unscramble the image using a wii image unscramber (google it). It will convert the .wii to a .iso and then you can burn that iso file using imgburn.

I suggest that you use imgburn for two major reasons. First, its free and second it is designed solely for burning images the right way. If you try and use nero (which is what I use) if you don't know what your doing you could end up just burning the iso to the disc rather than using the iso to actually image the disc. I see it all the time by noobs on here.

There idiot, is that clear enough for you?

omg, noobs. listen to their advice. winrar uncompresses the wierdly named files and create an iso image. that iso image is what you burn to the disc. that is key!! i dont mean image as a picture its just a file called an iso image. it should be something like excite turck.iso the burn that to a dvd. look around the forums!!!!

Whats excite turck? Is that a new Square enix spinoff of final fantasy 7 for the wii?! OMG!


Winrar... can I rent that at say blockbuster... and how is putting that in my wii going to help extract files on my computer?!?!

(btw, before you call people noobs, most of these people have been around for quite a long time, they are just fed up because even after several very clear explanations, people refuse to read... )
