fattyz Posted February 21, 2014 Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 This is KILLING me I am downloading a GIANT file and it keeps stopping at random. I restart, it runs awhile (5 min or 5 hours) then stops) !!! This is a new computer with a super fast HD! The only thing I can add that might provide a clue is I notice when a torrent finishes instead of seeding it gets the red error also. I seem not to have this problem much with smaller torrents only now and then and one restart usually fixes it no prob. Right now I am at about 75% of a 75 gig download and I can't stop I'm going crazy. (And of course with all these errors the torrent probably won't work) I'm into day 4 here, any advice greatly appreciated. Yours FattyZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harold Feit Posted February 22, 2014 Report Share Posted February 22, 2014 Ok, so the torrent itself is probably dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fattyz Posted February 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 Just to verify, "the torrent itself is probably dead". What does this mean? I have download lots of stuff but I don't pretend to know how it works exactly so I appreciate your answer. Yours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold Feit Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 It means that the specific torrent you're trying to download won't complete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fattyz Posted February 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 Well, it did finally. I got it after 37 hrs and at least 50 restarts. The torrent works and the quality is good. ??? Correction all I ended up with was 68.1 gigs of junk. (should've been 75) That's what I get for being stubborn. The torrent is active still and there are a lot of seeders but I guess it's junk.
