Solved: 8 Years, 9 Months, 3 Weeks ago Patial Download of game

My download of Penumbra overdrive has stalled at approx 150mb. Should I cancel this operation and attempt to download the game a second time using the same code I was given at purchase, or is there a better way?


cheers

Try to redownload the game. It should be no problem.

Yes, well, did that this evening. This time the file has hung-up at 263mb. This is kind of frustrating.

Is there anything I can sensibly do with a 236 mb "exe.part" file in my download folder or do I need to try again from scratch?

Perhaps you could try this:
http://www.freedownloadmanager.org/index.htm

Or some other download manager that can resume files.

I used http://www.getright.com/ several years ago, but I think it is not for free.

If the server does not support "resume" then I doubt if any download manager will be useful.
I have tried on six occasions now to download this file and I have been unsuccessful every time.
I'm kinda sorry now I ever parted with my money. This aint great customer service.

It seems problem of your ISP, I downloaded yesterday the Linux version without problems. Have you tried to download the file in different time zone? Maybe when the net is less busy...

My tip would be to call the ISP and check with them. Maybe they can figure out the problem :/

Uggg... Nope X3 here as well. Not my ISP...

Either your server is barfing, your network is failing, or the source file is corrupt.
