Hi All,
I'm a bit of a muppet at tech-heavy stuff, but my mate's just started me on bit-torrenting, and it's absolutely pant-wettingly marvellous.
However, I've just got some stuff that's in an .iso file, which my machine doesn't recognise, and I understand I need an .iso unpacking thing.
My finances are somewhat akin to those of a church mouse who's wife has run off and stolen all the cheese, so I'd like to get some freeware.
Anyone got any suggestions? I don't know what an .iso is, but I'm assuming it's like a jumped-up version of a .zip file or similar.
Any suggestions appreciated.
Cheers,
Myky D

I have seen inside an ISO with WinRar, but ISO's are ment to be burned to CD to be used.
I have heard of ISO viewers, but I just haven't bottered. I'll be surprised if many are free.
Let me go see....
MagicISOMYRIAD These two are not free.
I go back to what I said before. Just burn them to cd. Incase you didn't know, you can't burn it like a data disk. When you go to make the cd, you have to choose the option to make the cd from an ISO or BIN file.
See ya.

get daemon tools, its a virtual cd rom thingy, when you have it open, right click (bottom right), go to virtual cd/dvd-rom and go to set number of drives, select four. then right click again go to cd/dvd rom, click device, and "mount" your iso file btw its free

alcohol 120% is the best, it scans drives for iso and lots of other imgs.it makes iso's,mounts on a virtual drive the program creates,you can find it on most filesharing,torrent,etc..sites
