Try using Nero to burn the CD image to disk. If you are just copying the files across then I doubt the CD will be bootable. Hence why it doesnt work.

Hmm.. pass. Does Nero not want to open it? Can you not make up your own cue sheets (I remember someone saying it was quite easy).

I must open it first because nero will only burn the file without opening it as for cue files i dont know how to make my own.

download bin to iso and convert it, you dont need a cue sheet then.

Rather than download anything, just rename the file... .bin to .iso

worked with all the images that were missing cue files for me

It works now I've converted it to iso and then burnt the image,

Thanks
