kariensaman Posted November 10, 2005 Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 I'm new to utorrent and far from computer savvy so my apologies in case this isn't really a bug and sounds dumb. Okay, so on to the story: My computer's tendency to hang has always been a problem, and I was pleased when I found out utorrent doesn't seem to have any errors when I reopened it after I restarted the computer. But I noticed a discrepancy in the downloaded data items. The Downloaded item of the Transfer part of the General section displays downloaded data way over the one displayed on the Total Size item of the General part (the one in the parenthesis). Can anyone please explain that, if it's not a bug?Or if it is, any ideas what should I do? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zebulon Posted November 10, 2005 Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 It's because you've received some bad chunks from other peers, which were discarded and downloaded all over again. Hence the downloaded data superior to the total size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kariensaman Posted November 10, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 So does that mean utorrent doesn't have any problems with hanging PCs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kariensaman Posted November 10, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 Wait-that's strange, I don't recall the Wasted item (does't this display the data to be redownloaded?) ever displaying such a big amount. Does this mean that when my computer hung a lo of the data was bad and so had to be redownloaded? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
