".bin" is not a well-known application file extension. I've worked
with various things over the years that used files with this
extension, usually to contain proprietary/compressed data or code
overlays (similar in effect to DLLs or drivers).
I don't think you can safely generalize about them. If you have a
boot disk handy, you could try renaming them, one at a time, and
seeing if anything breaks.
