    Default 7zip...Help

    Hi

    I've just downloaded all the part of parasite eve 2 DISC 1 ((7parts)) , but when I extracted the parts, I got the the errors at 51%. Now. I need a solution for that becuase Im getting sick of that , I always got errors when I extracted 7z files.
    and to help me more, I downloaded all the part at once or at one time. Is that effect and corrupted the files ? or should I turn off all other downloads like mIRC or Bittorrent ?
    Another thing to help me more, suggest a better way to download those files in a safe and not to be corrupted ?


    With love...spacetoon

    Which program are you using that has 7-Zip functionality? There are some that support it, but the bes to use is 7-Zip. The files should be identical sizes with the exception of the last file which is most likely smaller than the rest, so that's one thing you can check on your own, if any particular file seems smaller than the rest before the last file, there may be a problem. Also to answer your question, it is best to try to not max-out your bandwidth while downloading, it can cause corruption.

    If you are talking about the one Das upped recently then be sure all the parts have the same size except for the last one.

    Make sure you you have all the file parts and they match up to the size in my links. Also make sure you have the latest 7-zip version 4.32 which was released December 9th (not to be confused with 4.23).

    Copy & paste the password when extracting.

    The other way to see the file sizes is to move the files to a seperate folder and use the detail view set in the view dropdown menu for that folder

    Yeah how do you know that all the files are the same size... and does that include that last file aswell?
