After taking a break from PR, I want to give it another go. I'm having trouble installing PR. I've been following the Installation Guide, but after I downloaded prbf2_1.2.0.0_full.iso I've mounted it with a Virtual Clone Drive, but nothing happens when I try to double click on the above file to begin the installation process. Not sure what I'm doing wrong. Thanks

Virtual Clone Drive creates a virtual DVD drive.
IN Windows Explorer
GO to My Computer
You should see a list of your drives:
C:
D:
etc
one of them is the virtual DVD drive
Open it, then run the installer .exe

I've tried that and get an error saying
Windows can't access this disc
The disc might be corrupt. Make sure the disc uses a format that Windows recognizes. If the disc is unformatted, you need to format it before using it.

I also tried using 7 Zip but get an error saying that it cannot open the file as archive.
Under the details portion in the download page, it says the file is 6,944 MB. When I download it, it is completed instantly, and the file size is only 35KB. Is this perhaps the problem?

the easiest and best way I had installing from the iso was to get winrar. then create a folder for the iso, name it whatever, drag the iso in to the folder, right click on the iso, "extract here" and let it rip. when it's done extracting double click on auto run and kick back, done deal.

it looks like you only have the torrent. you need to download the iso.
I got the 6GB iso from here.

took me about 55 mins and will depend on your d/l connection speeds.
you only extracted the iso torrent from the rar. after you get the 6GB iso from the above link and as mentioned in the previous post, create a folder then drag that iso in to that folder. now right click on the iso and select "extract here", let it rip. then in that same folder after the iso is extracted it should look like my screen shot below. double click on the "auto run" to install the game.
