    Default How do I burn .mds and .mdf files onto a CD

    I downloaded Crazy Taxi 2 and it came with only a .mdf and .mds
    How do I burn on to a CD-R?

    You need a program called Alcohol 120%. Images that end with .mdf and .mds were created using that program.

    Use the RAW/DAO writing method and the lowest speed possible to burn it.

    How do I burn that to a disc?, and can I do that with DiscJuggler?

    Wait, what? How did you now end up with a .cue file? You said you had two files: an .mdf file and a .mds file. You load up the (I think) .mds file, make sure the burn settings are set to RAW/DAO, then burn at the slowest speed.

    Open Alcohol 120% and click on the Burning Wizard. Browse for the image file (doesn't matter if it's MDF or MDS only the right one will show up). Click next and the next window will show your burner - select the slowest speed you can. Under "Write Method" select RAW DAO. Then click Start.
