    Hi All,

    I seem unable to get any games to download. I start but it seems to freeze so I have to keep cancelling and trying again. I have left it for up to 10 minutes each time, and switched servers but failing miserably.
    I have managed o download one game, but it took nearly all week-end to do it, and it was a simple game too.
    What is the problem

    We need info on your connection...


    Are you broadband/wireless broadband/on a router/adsl???


    We need to know as much as possible, however, what game where you downloading, simple to you may be "transformers autobots DS" where's to me simple may be the original metroid...


    Also, I'd try a download manager, after many successful downloads, even my mobile broadband, which keeps cutting out as we speak :( isn't so band, especially since it can resume...

    Also, which browser are you using, if your firefox I'd get flashget, with the flashgot plugin for firefox, there is a tutorial on the site if you need.


    If not, there are planty for other browsers.

    I'm on Virgin cable broadband, standard package. It doesn't appear to matter which game I try to download, but for example, Mario & Sonic at the Olympics
