A *.ISO or *.BIN is a file that is the image of a CD or DVD or Diskette. You need to mount a disc image in a virtual drive to run it in the emulator (I assume you are using Chankast) - Use Daemon Tools. As for the age thing, I imagine our members range from 13-40 years of age, possibly older. Also, this forum(and most other emulation forums) is not the place to beg for ROMs or ISOs, don't even think about it unless you want to get banned.

In Search Of and BIN there; done that. 28 as of yesterday.

ISO (eye ess oh) is a CD-Rom image as are BIN (as in trash bin) files. BIN is short for Binary.
