Thread: downloading glacier bay

  1. Default downloading glacier bay

    I am trying to download the Glacier Bay files. I have downloaded and installed them before without any problems, but this time the downloads just won`t start downloading. I have FS2004 with Vista which is a pain in the butt(I am English and would usually use a different word), any advise, regards Roy Mercer.

    Are you able to download anything? There is nothing "special" about the GB files as far as downloading goes.

    I assume you are speaking about downloading and not installation - some folks get the two terms mixed up.

    And have you tried downloads from other sites - do they work properly?

    Is it possible your virus protection program is blocking the DL?

    Just trying to get a handle on what you have tried.

    If there's a problem with Java in your browser you'll have download issues; also some d/l accelerators have problems with this site.

    I have downloaded other files before and after my attempt to download these files, I have downloaded and installed these files before and run the program on my current computer.I have just tried again, I click on the download button for the file, then on the download copyright page I click on I accept then save as, regards then save, but the download doesn`t start, I have left it on overnight in case it is slow, nothing, regards Roy.

    Maybe clear out your temporary internet files, might be a cache issue if you've tried downloading it prior and the cached file is corrupted somehow. Failing that, try a different browser or try downloading it from Avsim. I just tried it here with WinXP and IE7 and the download worked as expected. Best wishes,

    Jim

    Thanks for you advise, I tried everything you suggested without sucess so I gave up and went to Avsim, within 20 minutes I had everything downloaded, installed and I was running the program. Something in my computer does not like Flightsim.com. regards Roy.
