Post subject:  Corrupt Installer

Hello.

I'm having a problem, I went to the "Getting Started" Page and clicked on the link to download the Full Obsidian 3.0.5 Installer, when I did that it brought me to

http://www.mckillion.com/obsidian/downl ... e=Obsidian

Which then opened the window to choose where I want to download it too, when it was downloaded, I started up the installer, and about 75% though it, a window poped up saying Corrupt Installer, I tried reinstalling it a few times, but the Corrupt Installer came up everytime?

Any suggestions?

Try starting the installer with /NCRC parameter (it's case sensitive). If it
won't work, try redownloading (there's a rumour about one of the mirrors
being corrupt).

Ah thank you very much, I use Ace Explorer, thats probaly why. I got it installed just waiting for my acount to go active.

So the acount usually takes 1-2 hours to activate?

sometimes, but u need to check ur trash/junk email alot of the time it goes there. also some email obs wont send an email to for some reason so u may need to end up using diff email accounts to actually recieve ur account info. but its worth the hassle

A friend I invited last week DL'd the installer via IE, never noticed a connection drop (but granted he didn't watch it the whole time) and also recieved the corrupt error.

hey flame - I downloaded the whole installer today - it seems to work fine for me.

Just use a program that can 'resume' downloading - I used Free Download Manager - that way if there is some hitch, at least it will resume!

ok ashes i got one for you and Kigger try installing it ona bank network and make it work without corpret security taking over and getting you screwed.

that's a challange.

runs througha proxy server and has auto scans. has scripts that wont let you run .exe files

anything booted in cd is flagged and you got to call to unlock and it's watched as you do it.

downloads are also flagged.

lol

good luck guys
