Thread: Q> burning PSX games: cue or bin file?

Thanks to all the great help here. I have a noobie question: i downloaded MediEvil II and unziped the .rar, and got two files: a .cue and a .bin. the cue is only like 1 kb. and the bin is the bulk of the .rar. so which do i burn? using magicISO i have to choose only ONE file, and if i choose the cue, does it automatically link with the bin to burn that one too? (like when unpacking mutlipart .rar files)

I am cautious as i have yet to get a swap method to work for my ps2 slim.
Thanks for the help!

yes, the .cue will get the image and burn the files. I don;t know about magicISO, but for most software the .cue is necessary

Thank you N1ghtWalff! that answered it!!

I'd suggest using IMGBURN.

It's a free program and it'll automatically tell you if you've selected the wrong file and, if the right one is in the same directory, choose the correct file for you.
