Matrix Games

You may have an unfinished or corrupted download. Please completely uninstall the game/download, clear your temporary internet files and then reinstall with a newly downloaded file. Here are some tips for assuring that your download completes successfully:

• Download Managers - We suggest you use a download client like "Internet Download Manager" available for free from www.internetdownloadmanager.com.  It will let you resume disconnected or broken downloads. You can even pause and resume them whenever you want.
• Incompatible Download Monitors - Programs such as GoZilla, NetZip, Flashget etc. are not compatible with our server and will sometimes block or stop downloads. If you are using AOL's built in browser, we recommend using Internet Explorer or Firefox instead.
• Try a Different Browser – If you have been having downloading problems with Internet Explorer try Firefox or vice versa. You can also try another browser like Chrome or Opera.
• Disable Anti-Virus Software - Before you begin the download and for the entire duration of the download completely disable all Anti-Virus software you have running. AV software will try to stop or scan a download. It may cause the download to be corrupt or damaged.
• Disable Firewall Software - Also disable for the duration or your download all Firewall software you have running.
• Screen Savers - In some instances, screen savers can interfere with the download process. If you have a screen saver that is starting while you are downloading, please disable it temporarily until your download is complete.
• Download Overnight – In some areas, busy times for the internet can impact the reliability of internet downloads.   Try downloading at times when most people in your area are asleep.
• Don’t Rename a Downloading File - Do not rename the file you're downloading, it may cause installation problems.
• Download to your Hard Drive Only - Do not download the file to an external hard drive or USB thumb drive.
• Make Backups - We recommend that you backup the software you downloaded to a CD or DVD. By our license agreement you're granted the right to burn one personal backup copy to either CD or DVD or the backup medium of your choice.
