Do not mention the name of the title! It's not allowed.

After you are done downloading, then do a research on this site's guides. If you still need help then ask!

Most likely it may be in rar format.. Unrar it with WINRAR and then you will have a BIN and CUE file for each disk. You can then use NERO to burn it, if its a ISO or IMG file, you can still burn it with NERO.. THen follow the little NFO file that it came with if it needs a serial/patch/or keygen to install it. I hope you got it from a good network that the people included all the stuff with it to work.

If there is a NFO file, use Notepad to read it first! Then give us the file's ext. not the file's name (for example: ISO, IMG, NRG, MDF & MDS, BIN & CUE, etc.), so we know what type of image file it is & which program you'll need to burn the image to disk.

Go here and Download Alcohol 120% (http://www.alcohol-software.com/)
after installing that (and the download is UnRared) do the Image Burning WIzard, Find the image, and burn it.

If you have a .BIN and .CUE filem you need to select the .CUE (the .BIN and .CUE MUST be in the same folder!!)
If it is an ISO you need to just burn the .ISO file
If it is anything else like a .MDF and .MDS, those are pretty much the same as the .BIN & .CUE.

Alcohol is great for burning Images, It can do em all.

I'm sure none of them are really "bootvis trace files". This is just windows getting "confused" because there are other programs that use the same file extensions. Make sure you have "hide extensions for known file types" turned OFF in explorer. (Tools -> Folder options -> View -> Untick "hide extensions for known file types"). Now, you want the BIN and CUE files. If the files you downloaded are RAR or ZIP files, use WinRAR to extract them. BIN files are actually the image files, and CUE files are little information files about the BIN files that CD programs use for burning the images to CD. Anyway, once you have the BIN and CUE files together in a folder, you can use Alcohol 120%, Nero, or pretty much any CD-burning software to burn them, but make sure you use the option to burn an image, not make a data disc from the files. You can also use Daemon Tools as a Virtual CD drive and just load the images without having to actually burn them, if you want.

CUE file tells you how to burn a BIN FIle. What burning software do you have??? NERO/ ALCOHOL. Will let you load the cue file and it will select the BIN FIle to burn.. You have to do it to all 3cd's.. And then you load the first cd in the disc drive and you will use your cdkey to play it.. YOu may have to install all 3cd's.. SO BURN THEM all!!! DAEMON tools will let you mount the disc to your hard drive without burning and then you can install that method to.
