9 posts by 8 people · 14 Nov 1999 - 15 Nov 1999

Still having d/l problems with this huge undertaking...I d/l all 45 file into a temp directory, double clicked the exe file then when it tells me to extract I get an error saying "can't find attached archive data" I cancel that error and get another one saying 1 file could not be extracted...Any ideas? This thing is driving me crazy..I damn near spent all day on this yesterday..Are we having fun yet..Anyway, any help is much appreciated.. Thanks, Jay

The Service Pak is archived with a different system and it has been causing all sorts of problems. Especially for users with Netscape. The best advice is to get a dload manager and use that to do the downloading. The two I'm familiar with are Gozilla(free) and Getright. (shareware). Both allow you to schedule the downloads and grab them automatically. I used gozilla to dload all 45 files while I was browing and doing other reading. When you do download the files, send them to a temp folder. then when you run the installer, let it create the zip file in ANOTHER different folder. Keeps everything from getting messed up. Totally delete what you have done and start over with a dloader or IE5..0, good luck dave henrie

Can you give me the internet address for Godzilla. When I do a search, all I get is stuff about the movie. Thanks, James Larson

It's not "godzilla", it's "gozilla". A great utility by the way.

Thats the beauty of Gozilla. Just go to the web page with all the files listed. Click on the Leech button and all the files will be put into Gozilla's file system. Then just make sure you select all the files to be dloaded and choose either dload now or schedule it for later. Gozilla will do all the rest. You don't have to monitor the dloads, you don't have to choose each and every file to dload. It really is a time saver. and it seems to dload at a faster rate than either netscape or ie5 dave henrie

I know that the downlaod files for Service Pack 3 totals out to 130 Megs. Once everything is installed from these files, how much Hard Drive space does SCGT then occupy? Thanks.
