thelittlefire Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 Yeah, sure... when do you get the error. What kind of hard drive are you saving to? Does the torrent Status change to Error? The error isn't all that helpful// MessageId: ERROR_GEN_FAILURE// A device attached to the system is not functioning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QuickShare Posted October 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 The error does not happen all the time just now and again and when it does it stops some torrents,saving to 250 GB IDE hdd on kimi server.Torrent status says Error general failure?setup: Debian etch,wine+utorrent 1.8.1,tried going back to 1.7.7 stable version but was getting "disc read errors" quite alot.

Ultima Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 Are you sure you're downloading to the correct "drive" in all torrents? Stop them, right-click, Advanced, Set download location on them to verify? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
