using Nero that way is for rebuilding games,so you are doing it wrong

if you dont intend to rebuild the game,just burn the iso with Nero as you would normally,and use Nero burning rom [iso]option

dont know if i am being daft but Nero wont allow me to burn it as an image as it was originally a rar file ,i extracted it , image is more than 2 gig
even if i tried to burn the rar.iso file it is still more than 2 gig ?

the problem is that it isnt an actual image that i can tell
it is a list of six difrant files/folders that would have been taken direct from the disc

i have trid using alkohol 120 as well

i have a screen grab but dont know how to add it

you have extracted the rar files to far and opened up the iso,which is a no no

if you have the original rar files,extract it again,but this time do it properly ONCE

check the sticky telling you how to extract files properly

if you find you cannot rescue the iso,you will need to rebuild the files you have back into a iso image,which is what you tried to do with Nero,but that wont let load in a single file over 2gb's,which you have found out for yourself

in which case you need to use cd/dvd gen method,but for that you will need the correct order for which the files are to be placed

and in which case,you havent got,but i am sure someone will post them for you,if you ask
