Status: offline 		The "disk 2 error" means you did not get the whole file - it should be 136MB (143000KB). IF you used a download manager try to resume. Otherwise you will have to download again. This happens sometimes...the interenet is still not completely reliable when it comes to huge files like this...

It is not always neccesary to start over even if you didnt use a resume capable ftp progam. In most ftp and "Download Accelerators" there are an Rollback option for files so you can resume some Kb's back to get rid of garbage.

I hate to complain about things when I'm posting first time here - (Hi everybody, Bill etc.) But why this huge patch has to be single EXE? Why not three separate +40mb ZIP-files? That should get rid of these problems concerning "internet reliability" It would make things much easier if you have to download something like 40 mb again instead of full 136 mb (if something goes really wrong) Kinda makes sense - Does it? Well - I'm lucky. Friend has T1-line at work so he can get this patch for me. But not everyone are so lucky... Modems are slow. I should know. I own one......

Status: offline 		Its really does not make sense. If you use Get Right as we suggust, and the download gets cut off. Its no biggie just go back select the file again and it will pick up were you left off. Now that is much more easier then spliting the files etc.... David

Status: offline 		The one file is an install file. If the files were to go separate it would create even more confusion as many people would probably not load them properly. Now you don't have to worry about. The program self-installs. And it does it perfectly. Wild Bill ------------------ In Arduis Fidelis Wild Bill Wilder Coordinator, Scenario Design Matrix Games

Status: offline 		Even as I'm writing this my old modom is chugging away! Got 42% and still got a few hours to wait! Was dropped by the server once, but Getright picked it up again after a few attempts and started from where it got dropped, It's slow guys. But we know it will be worth it!
