Well I've just gotten done with reformatting and reinstalling vista..... and Now on my second hard drive, my data one....... all my rar files seem to be corrupted whenever I try to extract them....... Now can this be fixed or Do I really need to redownload them all? Cuz that would take weeks
did you have both hardrives connected at the same time this happended to me two i had a 2 hardrives connected and when i went told it to format one of them suprisingly it fully formatted one of the drives but also partially formated the other drive ! so if you did and your rars were big files i think some if the data in the rars got formatted too which is why its showing corrupt. Please correct me if im wrong because im not 100% sure
nope, during the format I had the drive hooked up to my old folding@home pc, since vista was being a pain in the butt.... I didnt hook up the second drive until after vista was reinstalled not to mention vista seems awfully slow about everything now for some reason...... bah humbug, i freaking hate vista
Your name suits you. Are the rar's opeing in winrar or the built in zip of vista? If so be sure to use winrar.
I always use winrar, then winzip and 7zip as backup, corrupted in all forms......... and whats that crack about mah name lol?
Do you have a motherboard with an Nvidia chipset? I had the same issue which was related to crap Nvidia drivers for the integrated network adapter. Uninstalled the Nvidia drivers and stuck to the Vista ones and it worked great. It's a very common problem Edit: Just checked your signature (Striker) so yes, try uninstalling the Nvidia network drivers.
I have microsoft network drivers installed here, I didnt bother throwing in my striker install disc, I just let vista do all the work
Your want to make sure you at least have the nvidia chipset drivers installed, just not the nvidia LAN ones.
