could it be that the d/ls are showing as complete, when they actually aren't? when you download the patches, do you check the md5 sums first to see if they match?

I don't think so but of course anything is possible. I've noticed there are two types of crc errors. The 1st happens if you don't delete the last D/L attempt from the temp cache.
What happens is the unpacker spits out a CRC error at that point. Assuming you delete the old cache, then I end up with CRC errors during the install. It will be various different files and normally not the same ones.
I'm not a expert on the stuff, but it seems like something is corrupting the files during the unpacking process. This means it shouldn't unpack if files were missing or already corrupted. This is why I think it's the unpacker that's corrupting them.
Before this latest patch the solution was to delete the old install and just D/L the full install. This way you avoided the patching process which was causing the issue. The problem is since this patch the problem is now affecting the full install attempts as well.
Many people were using a work around and using Steam to D/L the game and that was working, however it appears after this latest update the steam version is also spitting out CRC errors for some users.

Jolla go here - http://oca.microsoft.com/en/windiag.asp - and download the memory test. Burn it to a CD or floppy depending on your hardware.
You could have a bad memory location causing all the grief. I had similar situation where WoW would not patch (CRC errors) and would randomly crash in game. To "patch" the game I had to copy it complete from my Son's PC after he patched his copy.
Eventuslly the bad memory caused trash to be written to the boot sector of the hard drive, and I couldn't even re-install Windows due to the "CRC Errors".
The memory test picked up on the bad memory addresses. I replaced the RAM and all has been well since. Please resize your signature to the maximum allowed of 400 x 120 pixels with a maximum file size of 24000 bytes. Navigator |

i download a ton of stuff and never get errors well unless i download a overly huge huge file without a download manager in firefox talking like 900 meg +, played crysis warhead other week no problems. i am 80% sure it is something with traffic between ccps servers and maybe some users.

Edited by: Ix Forres on 24/04/2009 07:58:57 I've just had to reformat my box, and first time round I've had a corrupt download. Trying once more with DownThemAll and mirroring it to another server; will see if either succeed.
I do know for sure that a few days back the Mac installer would fail at the 240 meg mark.
Edit: System went through a 2-day memtest86 run a week ago. Clean as a whistle. -- Ix Forres EVE Application Developer ISKsense | EVE Metrics (NEW) | I Tweet |
