| Guest | Re: Download aborted at 91% Hi, Nope, if it detected corruption in the download the only option is to start anew. -- Best of Luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Nutcase" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/ Windows help - www.rickrogers.org "Replay" <Replay@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:F69EA6AA-3288-4724-98F6-6197D1BB85FA@microsoft.com... > Thae Akamai Downloader decided that it CANNOT handle the download and > aborted > the DL of RC2 with no option of resume. this happened after 91% (15hrs) . > Any way of resuming ?

| Guest | Re: Download aborted at 91% The servers could be very busy I had that problem with the Pre Rc1 build, I tried 4 times and it kept aborting in the last 10% , so I gave up. I was downloading RC2 within an hour of it going public and luckily I got it. But I think the CPP should of got RC2 from a secure site (one that requires a sign in), I'm sure there are lots of people out there downloading it that aren't in the CPP, tech beta or MSDN and their causeing congestion on the servers "Beck" <beck@none> wrote in message news:%23acO7Lt6GHA.844@TK2MSFTNGP03.phx.gbl... > > "Basil" <fawlty@removethisTesco.net> wrote in message > news:%23ke71ps6GHA.2364@TK2MSFTNGP02.phx.gbl... >> >> "Replay" <Replay@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message >> news:F69EA6AA-3288-4724-98F6-6197D1BB85FA@microsoft.com... >>> Thae Akamai Downloader decided that it CANNOT handle the download and >>> aborted >>> the DL of RC2 with no option of resume. this happened after 91% (15hrs) >>> . >>> Any way of resuming ?

They have our original passport details from when we first signed up, so it would be no great problem to have login based on those details. |

| Guest | Re: Download aborted at 91% We know that but that doesn't stop them from downloading it anyway, and causing server congestion for those who legitimately download it. And all those copys of the software in the hands of people without product keys is only going to encourage hackers to find a way around that, which will probably cause a whole lot of problems later on. And I'm certain that by the time vista is released in january there will already be counterfiet copys out there.
