let me break it down for you. backups for DC usually come in .cdi images. which can reach the filesize of 690MB, or bigger/smaller depending on the size of the image for a game. anyway, in order to upload it without uploading the whole image and risking corruption, release groups use WinRAR to split the files in 19MB files. older versions of winrar used the .001, .002 , etc. extension, while the newer versions of winrar use the, rar, .r00, .r01, .r03, etc extentions. but the newer winrars still support the older extensions.

so now, your game has the, .001, .002, .003, etc. extensions which means you open any of the files in WINRAR. a .cdi image should appear. click on the image once. click the extract button to extract the image from the files. it will automatically combine the files and put the image on your hard drive. burn the .cdi with dj or a120.

hope you can get it to work.
