opening plugins....???

rite ave just downloaded a bunch of plugins but am having problems installing them.....

there all ziped and ive got winrar and i can extract the plugins but the folder to install them will say for example..... Sinthecyza!3.2.dll

ave got vista and its gave me hundreds of problems with everything i do....

a take it my laptop doesnt have the prgram to open the plugins??7

ave searched the web for help on it but a can only get programs tht scan my p.c and then want money to fix whatever problems it may have.....

i deliberately got vista basic because of all the bad rumours i got told about it and its still difficult to instal drivers and other things....

anyone help, point me in the right direction for this problem??

thanx

you will need a host sequencer from which to open the plug-ins eg: cubase sx, sony acid-pro or cakewalk sonar

mate ave got cubase......its just when i extract the plugins with winrar i cant install them - ive downloaded and installed plugins before just not on my new lappy or with vista....

strange.. are you sure that your hittin the install application? if theres only .dll files you just copy them to your vst plug-ins folder - no need to install

rite mate il try tht, a saved them to a folder a created myself....cheers!

cheers mate, thought they would still instal if they were in another folder but got it now!!! :D

make sure its just a copy so the original dll. file stays in the install folder just in case.!
