Okay, so there's a game I own for the PS2 (yes, I know I'm outdated, but I'm happy with my family PS2, as for current-gen I have an Xbox 360, I don't need a PS3... 
). And I want to play this particular game on PC, so I decided to torrent it. Something I generally don't do, not being a fan of piracy, but in this case I already own and have paid for the game, so I should be allowed to download a PC copy, right? Anyway, this is where the trouble starts...
I have the torrented file on my laptop, and I have a program to extract the .rar file so it becomes a .bin and a .cue file respectively. So far, so good. This, however, is where I get stuck. I need to find a program, ideally a free one, to mount the .cue file onto a virtual CD. I can't burn the files onto a normal CD as I have none spare, so I need to get a program for virtual CDs instead. However, the only legal free one I know of is a Windows XP one (I use Vista) and that doesn't seem to work on my laptop.
Does anyone have any advice to help me out? Ideally, a complete rundown of how to download games and actually set them up to play through bitTorrent would be great, but otherwise just any advice to help me out here would be good.
