			you need, either a burning app able to burn Bin/Cue files, or BinChunker to see the innards of it. you need to find a Cue sheet if you don't have one. it's simply a text index file, pointing where the different CD tracks are supposed to go. and, one last tip - don't download anything from unknown sources; if you can't tell what it is in the listing, don't waste your time downloading it.

			thx, but i have a cue/bin recording software winCDR 3.8, and i can make an cue file from these files with segacuemaker, but i have to rename the BIN files to ISO & MP3 to make a cue file. Then i tryed to burn this CUE File, but CDR said that the WAV Files are incompatible or corrupt. I had no problems when the audio files are in .wav & .mp3 then i could burn it easy and works great (thx to master akuma) but WHAT SHOULD I DO WITH THIS ******* .BIN Files ? I want them in WAV or MP3 ! sorry to ask such questions but it make me crazy !

			Post a screenshot of a hexdump of the start of the start of the files. They could be in any format, the name and extension means nothing.
