Demo problems

westyfield · 11-07-2007, 01:10 PM

Earlier today I decided to finally download the demo. I tried downloading it from GamersHell, but then it required me to extract the files before it would install, and it kept failing the extraction. I then tried downloading it from Pixelrage or WorthDownloading, I can't remember which. That told me it was about 30% through downloading before it started to copy into the location on my HD. For some stupid reason it had only D/Led half the demo, so I gave up. What sites did you guys download it from, and were there any problems?

Fileplanet or filefront are usually pretty good.

Ok, thanks, I will try that sometime. I'm just worried it might be my PC with the problems.

If your internet connection skips a bit while downloading large files, they usually don't complete correctly. I've had this happen now and then myself, and it can be a huge headache. I'd recommend a download manager, but haven't really used any myself so can't give you one to go with.
