 You will need to put together the pieces of the ripped ISO yourself, or else Dolphin will not run it (or will just boot to a black screen).
-*On Windows, the easiest way to combine disc parts with built in tools is to create a batch file. Make sure all of the files use the "gamename.part#.iso" syntax, starting with zero, then place them together in a folder. Create a text file within that folder and copy the following text into it:
+*On Windows, the easiest way to combine disc parts is to run an automatic process through a batch file. Make sure all of the pieces use the "GAMEID.part#.iso" syntax, starting with zero, then place them together in a new folder (one game per). Create a text file within that folder and copy the following text into it:
 :<pre>copy /b *.part0.iso+*.part1.iso+*.part2.iso+*.part3.iso+*.part4.iso fulliso.iso</pre>
 :Adjust the above code as required if you have more or fewer parts. Save the document as a .bat file, then close it. Now, simply run the batch file, and a command prompt will appear and process the commands within, joining the files.
-*An even easier method for Windows users is to use [http://hjsplit.org/ HJ-Split]. Download and extract it, and then launch it. Rename the multiple files you have ripped with CleanRip to exactly same file name and extension (GAMEID.iso) but add another file extension .001 (GAMEID.iso.001), .002 (GAMEID.iso.002), and so on respectively, then let HJ-Split do its magic.
 *On Linux and OS X, name each part "part#.iso" and place them in a folder together. Run the terminal, and set the current directory to the folder with "cd <directory>" command, then run "cat part1.iso part2.iso part3.iso > fulliso.iso", adjusting with more or less parts as required.
