how do you get .rar to .nds

I know, I know :( I'm not the smartest but..... I have R4i, it had games on there already. now I am just trying to add games & it wont read any of them. I notice the files that were there were .nds & the ones I downloaded were .rar. I downloaded an emulator NO$GBA not sure if I need it but how do I make the games work ?? :'(or can one of you refer me to an appropriate thread. :-[

Use WinRAR to extract the .nds file from the .rar http://www.rarlab.com/

and if you dont know how that works.. after you have downloaded and installed winrar, right click the .rar file and click 'extract here'
or open the file and click the extract button..
then you can delete the .info and .html files that are also included in the .rar file, which are an info file and a shortcut to the romulation website.
hope i have helped.

thank you thank you that worked!!!thank you apocalyptica & ikke009 it worked *hugs 4 everyone*

It's explained in the site introduction:
