How do I use a BIN file?

I have a big BIN file that contains something I want to install. Came with a defunct MSInfo document and a CUE file, but no setup or .exe. How do I un-bin it?

This is a disk image. DVD-burning apps can read it.

I'm sure you can ask the authorized retailer that sold you the app for more instructions. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

The cue/bin pair is essentially a CD image. In linux you can either mount it and read from it or use "bin2iso" if you want to burn it. In windows IIRC you can use something like alcohol120%; maybe even nero too. Look and see if someone's ported "bin2iso" for windows or search a CD/DVD forum for alternatives.

I use Daemon Tools to mount disc images, seems to work pretty good and I don't have to spend time burning all these images to disc.
