Problems with .cue files?

[GhostWKD]

just trying to burn a couple of cue files to dvd tonight, had real problems

launching via the cue files themselves nero tells me access to the cue files was denied... and if i launch nero then try and open the cue file it tells me i've a invalid filename?

The strangest part though, is my comp wont let me copy or paste or well do anything with the cue files, they're kinda stuck where they are... cant rename them either (tried to rename to get around the invalid filename error - they do have lots of spaces and brackets in the filename)

Not too sure whats up have tried a reboot too and made sure there arnt any programmes up which would be trying to do anything with them

Anyway stressed me out for the night so i shall bid you all adieu... and hopefully someone will have some ideas what i've broken this time

I though .bin and .cue were more for CDs, not DVDs.

Not a clue its a dvd-rip

Cant open the .cue file in notepad with the error access is denied

Had the same problem last night after i opened an old ACE file that i had created years ago!

What you need to do is start the computer in safe mod then select administrator, rather than your usual log-in. Regardless that your login may have the same access, the safe mode administrator overrules it.

Once its loaded locate the appropriate folder and right-click, properties then click on security.

Change the permissions to the correct settings and away you go.

Restart and it should be ok!

just get a modded xbox,can mount & play bin & cue from a data DVD

 

[GhostWKD]

access rights all fine re-downloaded same problem at a loss now

 

[custard]

have you tried burning to CD?
what i do is mount the image on a virtual drive.
i then drag out the .dat file to desktop.
rename that file AVI
dont know if thats right or wrong but ive done it and it works fine.
you can then add it to a data dvd

 

[GhostWKD]

wont let me move it anywhere, nor take it into my alcohol 120% image virtual drive thingy

 

[custard]

right click,mount image?

 

[GhostWKD]

right click only gives these options

 

[custard]

if you double click that does it open nero?
change the options of what it opens with under 'open with'

 

[GhostWKD]

tried both, cant open the cue file in notepad says file name invalid. wont let me re-name the files, wont let me send cue via msn to ryan... think time to find another version
