Does anyone know how to combine multiple ISO files to make a single ISO?
I have a bunch of files named like this:

name.iso.01
name.iso.02
name.iso.03
....
name.iso.50

The original image was split and each part had to be downloaded separately. Now how do I reassemble the original ISO?

Any advice will be useful, thanks!

Use something like UltraISO

There are plenty of ways to combine .ISO files. You can for example use a tool like UltraISO. Just open the second ISO file, extract the files to your harddrive. Then open the first ISO file, add the files from the second ISO on your harddrive to the first one, write it to a new file, burn it with a tool like Nero or so and try it.

These are not ISO files, it is a single ISO sliced up into equal size chunks. He needs a winrar program to recombine them.

If it's not a rar file the other thing it could be (unlikely though it is) would be a gunzipped archive. The latter is more of a *nix tool.

Use winrar to unzip all of the files into one directory, then imgburn to create an ISO of all those files.

Methinks it's not an ISO but something you downloaded off BT that is an rar split into many. Just open the first .rar file or .001 file and it'll combine the files when you extract.

7-zip should figure it out if it's compressed at all.

If not, I believe the command-line solution is copy firstfile+secondfile+thirdfile... outputfile, or maybe copy name.iso.* name.iso

If you're using 7zip I think it supports wildcards. It's been awhile for me to use CLI archive tools....

hjsplit is a great tool, but what is that related recombine tool that you can use cli with? Hj-something...

Edit: Found it. It's called hj-join. Great tool.

Definitely not winrar, that was the first thing I tried. I will go through those tools suggested, thanks guys!
