maybe your unzip tool is wrong.
have you tried another one?

Contents of ISOs won't show up in WinRAR -- as long as the file is very large (I can't remember the size offhand), it should be OK.

Two more rars? Are you talking about the CUE and ISO? The ISO is a CD-ROM image; it's not an archive. The CUE is a plain-text CD-ROM TOC descriptor. You need to unpack both of those and then either burn or mount the CUE. Daemon Tools is the best utility for mounting disc images, but there are quite a few out there. (I use Alcohol 120 only for burning.)

WinRAR IS able to open ISO files and extract their contents, as if it was another type of archive. I think syd might have been confused because WinRAR might be associated with ISO files on his system so the ISO CD image looked like another RAR archive to uncompress (with the WinRAR icon).
But in order to play the game, the ISO file must be left intact and not extracted.

Yes, I know. That's what I wrote before, but then I changed it because I didn't want to confuse anyone.
