I recently downloaded a game from bittorrent. When i go to install the game it doesn't work i know the game is completely there, because it goes to the installing screen. but then when i restart my computer then it will start the actual loading but will not finish because i restarted the computer. how do i get this to load?? thanks
the game says it's an iso and i have extracted all files from it.

Don't extract the files. Either...

1) Mount the image on a virtual drive and install it from there
2) Burn the ISO to a CD and install it from there.

I would suggest using Alcohol 120% I www.alcohol-software.com I

mount the image with daemon tools
iso = image

nero burns iso's fine, and if its something worth keeping you might as well burn it to cd

If it's over 700Mb, you use a DVD, if it's under 700Mb use a CD. In your case I'm guessing you have to use a DVD. It can be time consuming so I would suggest creating a virtual drive (which is done automatically with Alcohol 120) and then right clicking the drive and click "mount imge". Then go to the ISO's location and select it. Now the ISO is mounted just like a DVD is in the drive so install it from there.

Select "securom" in the drop down menu for a game.

with alcohol or deamon tools the whole point is u dont need to burn the cd.

it make ure comp think it has another cd/dvd drive and that the iso is the disk inside it. :)

okay now my problem is i don't understand the alcohol 120%. I don't understand how to go about making a virtual drive. I looked in the help and it isn't much help can you give me step by step?
