I recently downloaded a windows game which is 1.9 GB iso file. I mounted it to install with wine and I know it works with wine but no files are shown at all!!! EMPTY! Extracted it but still EMPTY!!! It got me 4 Hours to download.(download speed about 230 kb/s.) Really I am confused what it is and how it happened. How can a file which has nothing be shown 1.9 GB over internet and on my computer as well. Is the file corrupt? Will I have to redownload it? Or can it be fixed with some software? Please help!

Make sure that you mounted the image correctly:
sudo mount -t iso9660 <path_to_image> <path_to_image_mount_point>In any case, the fact that it's 1.9 GB in size doesn't mean that it contains 1.9 GB of files, in fact it's totally possible that the image it's actually completely empty.
