3DS MAx Models (Noob Question)

I'm very new to making maps in Halo CE.
I FINALLY got a trial version of 3DS Max 5 (I have no idea how you all get it) I got Blitzkreig working but when I try to export a simple object (like just a box) it says it doesn't work because there is no actor. How do I make an actor, or is there something else I should do. Also I can't decompress the video tuts because I can't unpack .RAR files.

Ok, first get rid of that obsolete version of 3ds max and secondly you can download 3ds max 7 here:
http://www.softpedia.com/get/Multimedia ... -Max.shtml


Once you do that you simply make a box name it frame.

Then link it with whatever object you created (e.g. the skybox [the map]).

Green = Your Object

Blue = frame
