  1. Title says it all. I've downloaded just two games, since I came back, about 3-4 days ago. When I try to download them now they'll get to about 1/4 to 1/2 of the way and freeze there. Won't budge at all. I've waited hours on a measley 3.3 mb GBA game and have had no luck. I have over 27,000 points so I know that isn't an issue. This problem persists in both Mozilla Firefox and Microsoft Internet Explorer. I'm running a 64-bit Vista OS. Can anyone help? What's going on?

    Note: After this post I shall be downloading and trying Google Chrome.

    That's because it's 3.2 megabits per second, not 3.2 megabytes.

    I know, It's also where you are downloading from, My max is about 450kb sec, at times!
     
  7. Does it with Google Chrome too. No. 'Net isn't slow. I'm not premium so it caps at about 246kbps, but like I said above, once it gets to about half way it stops. The time increases in minutes until it says about 17 minutes, with just 2 megs to go. Seeing as it takes about a minute to get 1mb, it shouldn't be more than 2-3 minutes. When it gets to that high minute mark, the file drops down to .7 kbps or so. I just don't understand why I'm having problems now when I never had them before.

    O yes: 3.2Mbps

    I down't think you are the only one, I do have the same problem for time to time, But i downt run this place!
     
  9. Well I'm not expecting a truly helpful post to come along until a mod or admin answers. No offense to anyone, it's just they should know RomUlation inside and out. ;) I expect them to have a noteworthy answer.

    Is they no way admin to use your IP in case you need a renewal of your interrupted download?

    I just thought to say they are software that can store your download where you are upto on the web somewhere and contine downloading if interrupted
     
  11. I don't care if I have to start over or not. As long as the thing downloads. My 'net is sufficiently fast for me not to worry about renewing from where I left off.

    Arthur are you multi downloading or one download at a time?
     
  14. One at a time.

    ok, was just a thought
     
  16. With limited speed, I don't want to do more than one at a time. ;)

    I think it's more of a case, of you not being allowed to do more than one at a time
     
  18. Good thing I never tried then.

    Unfortunately I've found an alternate source to download the games I wanted. I would still like a solution to this problem if anyone has it. And thanks in advance.
