i have a bin file that i got from a friend, but after i burned it, it stayed as the bin file. i suppose i didn't realize i had no cue. so, to open this essentially pointlessly burned bin, what can i use to get the contents to install it?

thanks

You can try to create a cue sheet.

Save as binfilename.cue:

FILE "binfilename.BIN" BINARY
TRACK 01 MODE2/2352
INDEX 01 00:00:00

I've tried this before and it worked for me. Download the program bin2iso.exe and attempt create a cue sheet using this command:

bin2iso.exe filename.cue -c filename.bin

Nero also needs a cue sheet.

you're right...my bad :)

Assuming that the bin file is only a single track image, you can make your own cue sheet as show, use winimage to extract the bin, etc etc.
If the bin is a multi-track image, you are SOL as far as I know.
