extract them using winrar. just click on the rar file and extract to folder then look inside its contents.

um do you have all the parts ?
if you have all the parts you should be able to extract the file.
try again

winrar is the only answer - and there's tons of topics on .iso and everything make sure you read up first!

yeah but this person has to make sure they have all the winrar parts available so they can extract the whole file. if they only have some of the rar set it will not extract fully.

that is the bottom line

Depends the new winrar i think you can open any file if you have a older one you need to open the master file, it would usually be 00 or 01. Either way you need all the files its usaully adds up to the size of a game. They should also not have errors in them.

I think, and I may be wrong here but, if you happen to have a .sav file with all your .rar parts it would be an easy way of finding out if you do indeed have all the parts to the file.

You don't need to combine them together. I can just imagine you trying to add the parts into one rar file.

Just double click the .rar file to open it in winrar. If it isn't there double click .r00 first, and if that's not there .r01.

If you got this off of bittorrent like i'm guessing you did, you shouldn't need to worry about checking for parts, they should all be there.
