Corrupt PT8 LE Zip File
Hi all.
I've done a search and found a couple of threads on this topic from when PT8 first came out but there didn't seem to be any real solution to this problem listed back then. I've downloaded Pro Tools 8 LE twice now and have had problems with both downloads. The first download I downloaded with Flashget and the data2.cab file was corrupt when trying to extract it, the second download I used the Digidesign Download Manager, data2.cab is fine but now Xpand2.big is corrupt. If it makes any difference to advice I'm running XP Pro 32 bit. Please help! Cheers, Karl |

Re: Corrupt PT8 LE Zip File
The first time I tried to download PT8, i bypassed Digi's download manager, and downloaded it straight to my desktop like any other file. That one was corrupt. Something was missing, not sure, but nothing would open without an error.
Second attempt I used Digi's Download Manager option and everything was fine. Maybe you just need to give it a couple more tries. Not sure why my first one was corrupt, but maybe it was just bad luck.

Re: Corrupt PT8 LE Zip File
Thanks for your replies. I can't really afford to download the whole 3.25gb again as I'll hit my download limit for the month if i do, and i'm only a week into my net for the month (that data usage is almost ALL from pro tools 8 as well ), it also doesn't help that I can only get regular ADSL which downloads at 150kb/s max. I'd be happy to download just teh xpand2.big file, I've emailed digi about that, but I don't really want to waste all my months access and get dialup speed for 3 weeks especially when my 3rd download could be corrupt too.

Have tried WinZip, WinRar, Windows extractor...... Looks like the DVD might become available before I can get upgraded

Re: Corrupt PT8 LE Zip File
Have you tried 7zip? thats my goto when the Windows Extracter fails. It worked on the Loops files. Its free just google it,.
