There are hundreds of threads in these forums so it is easy for a thread to get buried.: <a href="http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/3067/page/3?replies=87" rel="nofollow">http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/3067/page/3?replies=87</a> Thanks regards Stephen p.s. Dave, it is being offered for two days, :) DaletonaDave on "SAGA download problems" http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/3440#post-33786 Sun, 08 Jun 2008 15:51:38 +0000 DaletonaDave 33786@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ I remember that last time this game was offered, users had to use a download manager to get it to finish downloading. I even had to use one, and I have a 12Mb/s broadband connection. I didn't care for the game (genre), so I have no interest in it this time around. So, try using a download manager/accelerator. It might help. ;) P.S. - I also remember that last time this game was offered, they had it available for 2 days. Maybe they should've done that again this time too. aagarwal on "SAGA download problems" http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/3440#post-33758 Sun, 08 Jun 2008 14:35:24 +0000 aagarwal 33758@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ I have tried all the sites and mirrors, wasted the whole day.

The one given away and the one I got from Reflexive Arcade. Maybe if you can get my Email from the Administrators I could give you my bought copy as it seems silly having two versions of the same game. Just comntact them, theres a contact address somewnere in these forums I think. I do beleive the version I bought a couple of years ago is an earlier version though.

Sometimes if one server's down, accessing another goes smoothly. While it is frustrating when a game won't download/install/register/play/play correctly, it rarely turns out to be GAOTD's "fault"... usually ends up being an error made by the member or an incompatibility with the member's PC.

A "save as" command immediately gives a pop-up alert that "the webpage could not be saved". Using Adobe Acrobat to print the page seems to work, until the output file is examined. It has the first part of the page - up to the comments header, and then 6 blank pages with only the page headers, but no comments. This happens in both IE7 and inside AOL 9. (Previous events were in AOL7.) I tried it in Firefox, which I only recently downloaded. Interestingly, after informing me that the file name was invalid, it downloaded the page successfully with a different file name (that I specified).

But even after another 3 hours sleep - I still have no idea why only you have this exact problem (twice). If I was at your PC I would probably try to start Frigate while watching it with Sysinternals Process Monitor. Sometimes that can help determine where/why a program is choking. (If I could reproduce the problem on my PC - I could probably narrow down what was wrong in minutes). One idea I have (a benefit of sleep) what happens if you close all running programs - including all the programs you are able to close running from the system tray. (Then double check Task Manager to make sure all your programs have closed) - and then try to start up Frigate. Perhaps a program you use (and have running) isn't too keen on sharing the desktop with Frigate. Edit: Obviously not 100% awake yet - now I notice BillW50's post above. :) BillW50 on "Frigate3 File Manager: errors on installation and removal" http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/733/page/2#post-15042 Thu, 17 Jan 2008 19:49:21 +0000 BillW50 15042@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ Have you shutdown all of your startup programs living in your system tray, JEG88? As I have found problems like this before. For example, if Sticky Password starts before AltDesk (both were GAOTD programs), AltDesk will not launch or run. Run AltDesk first, and they both run fine.
