    Everytime I attempt to download it (which is about 6 times) it freezes my computer. Please fix the file or delete is so that this doesn't happen to anybody else.

    its not likely to be the file at our end.

    That is your pc I believe if it's freezing the whole thing...or do you mean the download is stopping?


    Download manager helps.

    "Free download manager" is a good one.

    Yes...trust me... it is. I have downloaded a game since then & it worked perfectly. I have also downloaded from here many times before.

    It freezes the entire PC. It is the only file that I have encountered that has done this.... hell it even froze a download manager.

    I'm guessing it's your pc-if it was a virus it would have worked after you had the entire file.


    What is your OS?

    System specs?

    And does it have alot of junk on it?

    Trust me I have no virus. I have rootkit defense, Avira Pro & Malwarebytes.

    Vista Ultimate

    Not quite sure

    Not at all.... I have a tool that automatically deletes junk files.

    I have downloaded gamecube games from this site before & they have worked.... this one however does not. I am not trying to sound like an ass here... I am just trying to report a broken file. If it was my pc the various other fileswouldn't have worked. It doesn't freeze during the download (Unless I am using a download manager) it freezes during the extraction (Win.RAR).

    But freezing the whole pc doesn't sound right.


    I would test but I already have the original.

    ..tried a virus scan?

    And how much space is left on your pc exactly?

    Mine is starting to do that...too much junk-but managed to get every file on my vista laptop.


    (Anyone want to confirm this-I have no download power left nor the want to try)

    this sounds to me like possible hard disk corruption. Have you tried running chkdisk?

    Is that how much you got left?

    You need more to stop your pc from crashing...

    Also useful.

    Sorry but this is bollocks. I currently only have 15 GB left on my OS drive and that's not causing any problems at all.

    I shall download this game just to prove that the file is fine and not going to freeze your computer. Download will take 10 minutes, though.
