Actually, the 1st thing you should do is make sure you don't have the .iso file extension associated with WinRAR, otherwise you'll most likely run into problems. So open WinRAR, and go into the options for associated file extensions, and uncheck the .iso extension.
Then you can go ahead & extract from the rar by highlighting it with a single click in WinRAR, then clicking the 'Extract To' button, then click OK on the window that pops up.
You should end up with an iso file, or another series of much smaller rars/spanned archive files.
If its the iso, then use DVDecrypter to burn to good quality DVD-R If its spanned archives/rar files, then extract from the 1st sequentially numbered one in the same way as you extracted from the original 1.14Gb rar to get your iso.
I've got my ps2 for a quite long time and I'm used to "backuping" games for it but recently I've got a problem.
I've downloaded a game. It was inside an archive so I've extracted it. Everyone on forum of that torrent was saying to use Alcohol 120% because inside archive was ONLY mdf (large) file and no mds (small) file and I simply don't know how to burn it. Maybe one of you be so kind to share some knowledge with me.
I've tried to burn this file with alcohol in this way:
1. add image file (INS)
2. in file name field I've entered "*" so I could "see" all files
3. I've choose mdf file
4. alcohol revognised it as IMG file - the ico was img
5. I right clicked on it and choose burning wizard
6. I set the lowest speed (6x) and placed Verbatim DVD-R disk in my dvdburner
7. The recording was finnished succesfully but.
8. PS2 recognise ps2 disk but it can't start the game. Even the ps2 logo is not showing up. After about 30 sec. ps2 turning speed down and entering browser screen.
