Hi everybody out here! :D
Dis is my 1st post here! :!:


I wud like 2 share some prob wid u all.
Hope some of u may hv got d solution :idea: .

I hd downloaded a *.rar file frm d net. approx 90 mb.
Wen i tried 2 unrar it wid winrar, d progress bar showd upto 100% as if complete operation was successful
Yet at the last point it terminated with an error msg :!:

WinRAR:Diagnostic Message

"!*:\*.rar: CRC failed in 3d_game_maker.iso.001. The file is corrupt"


Den I tried to fix it wid Advanced RAR Repair (ARAR) software.
It pretended dat it identified d prob & also fixed it to a new file named *fixed.rar.
But wen i tried 2 unrar d fixed file now, d error msg :!: again showd up.

Everyother unraring softwares beside winrar failed wid same or similar error msgs xcept 7-zip
7-zip unrard d file, gave an arror msg :!: at end, but successfully unrard d file 2 a location.

But now d prob:

d folder containd a setup file alongwith cab files, setup.ini files, etc of a software which i tried 2 run
but it gave error msg :!:

"cud nt load data file, bad data file"

I think dat although 7-zip unrar d file, it cudnt perform perfect end operation and only partial data file was unrard.
Infact the data.cab files unrard were damaged files. :shock:

Anybody got any other solution?

For information, I had downloaded the rar file from net thru Opera and is like any other rar file xcept it doesnot get unrard (fully or parially).

:cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:
ANY BODY GOT A SOLUTION :idea:

PLZ.........

prolly some files in that archive might be corrupted or maybe the site's copy itself is corrupted :(
