Wierd WinRAR Problem

[voogru]

i keep getting this when trying to extract a file? curropt file?

! H:\mp3s.rar: You need to start extraction from a previous volume to unpack MP3S.BIN

have no clue what it means.

any ideas?

It means you only have a part of a multi-part rar. You can't extract until you get all the parts.

Are you certain that the file name isn't h:\mp3s.part001.rar ?
Winrar3 uses different method of volume indication, no longer are the archives called file.rar, file.r00, file.r01, file.r02 etc. but file.part001.rar, file.part002.rar, file.part003.rar etc.

You can easily see if something's missing by opening the archive with winrar, if you see '->' after the file name, some packets are missing.
