djbvirus Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 Ive managed to download baed 1 in newsgroups and when I extract the iso I keep getting this message after the extraction gets to 100%.”ERROR: C:/Documents and settings\BeepBeep\Local Settings\Temp\Rar$DI3.8375\BAED.iso The archive is either in unknown format or damaged” I ran all the par2 files in the newest version of quick par and everything checked out ok. Is there something else I should try? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XtraTrstrL Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 (edited) I'm not an expert, but you could atleast try using different iso extraction tools. What do you use to extract the isos? After having problems before, I started using c-xbox tool for extracting isos. It's worked out flawless for me so far. I may have even had that same problem on BAED1 a few months back, that might have actually been when I got c-xbox tool. Wait.......If you're talking about pulling the iso out of a zip file (not actually extracting the iso to it's folder structure) Try using 7zip. I had the error problem with Family Guy series.zip. Winrar wasn't working for it. I got 7-zip and it worked perfect. Edited September 22, 2005 by XtraTrstrL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agozer Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 Wait, why do you extract the ISOs in the first place? Shouldn't you burn it? Anyway, the archive is very likely corrupt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prican25 Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 make sure you are using a xbox iso tool to extract it. i use qwix and it gives me no probs extracting iso or even making them (recently made my own dvd5 of ninja gaiden black ).

djbvirus Posted September 22, 2005 Author Share Posted September 22, 2005 (edited) but if the the archive is corrupt what do i do? Edited September 22, 2005 by djbvirus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agozer Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 but if the the archive is corrupt what do i do?There isn't much you can do but download the archive again, preferably from somewhere else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XtraTrstrL Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 You could try using the Winrar 'Repair Archive' under 'tools' in the Winrar Menu. 90% of the time it doesn't really help, but it's worth a try before deleting the rar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
