RE: Torrent
It depends on what you have downloaded. If its a ripped movie, game etc than no you shouldn't be asking here.

Theres always a .nfo or.txt document with your downloaded torrent. I suggest you read that.

RE: Torrent
When you open what file? are you installing somthing?
Try commenting on the torrent where you have downloaded it, you are more likely to find help there.

RE: Torrent
what step in the process exactly have you gotten to?

you've completely downloaded the file in utorrent/azureus/etc, right? what did you extract; RAR files? an ISO?

RE: Torrent
If you've got yourself an ISO, IMG, or some other disc image, just use Daemon Tools or Alcohol 120% to mount the second disc image.  Once it's mounted, direct the installer to the virtual disc drive, and you should be good to go.
