AllGamer Posted January 25, 2008 Report Posted January 25, 2008 try to download it again (and hope to get lucky)what you described is what we call a Poisoned Torrent.meaning some one intentionally injected a corruption there.this are usually bad tactics from RIAA and other alikes
jewelisheaven Posted January 25, 2008 Report Posted January 25, 2008 Actually if it is already downloaded, it sounds like you have a hardware / RAM problem. Are you saving it to an external drive? Where in the files does it show red blocks under the Files tab after a force recheck? Does this happen when you try the OpenOffice torrent (It's small ~ 100s MB by comparison, but if you're on a quota)... you should make sure nothing else is mucking with the files. It is possible the files themselves are corrupted at the source, in the event you remember where you got the torrent, check the comments there. It may say (bad files for XXX, check HERE for good content)... otherwise there's the hardware issue I mentioned above.
