We\'re not going to send you email (whatever your address is- you didn\'t even write it :P). We\'ll answer your post here and it is up to you to check back regularly and read the replies.


Ok, so you used the run_me_first.bat file and created the PS setup executable. You say that running this new file flashes up a command prompt screen, which then disappears instantly?

Are you sure you ran the new file, and not just the run_me_first file again? The new file should start the installation process.

If it doesn\'t, download the new run_me_first.bat file (found HERE), aswell as the MD5 tool (found at the same link). Put them in the folder with all the other .part files etc. (You may be prompted to overwrite the old run_me_first file- click Yes or Overwrite).

Run the .bat, and it will tell you if any of your .part files are corrupt. If any are, re-download them and try again.

Keep doing this untill the .bat file successfully creates the setup file. Run the setup file and everything should now work.


Hope this helps :)

(And I hope this post turned out correctly... jeez, MoZilla sucks for using forum buttons like URL... *switches back to IE*)


[Edit for below: Ok. I guess everything is worth a try once. :)]

On the note at the bottom about Mozilla, try Firefox. I use it all the time and its the best.

I did what Mogura mentioned but the link where the run_me_first.bat file is doesn\'t work.  Well, you get to the other message forum thing, and then when you go to the next site (http://command.no-ip.com/filestorage/anon/run_me_first.bat) it doesn\'t work.  The site isn\'t up anymore or something.  Anyone have a working site where I can download the patch cause when I try to run the .exe file after you run run_me_first.bat it says:


\"NSIS Error

Installer Corrupted or Incomplete

This could be the cause of a failed download or corruptions by a virus.

If desperate, try the /NCRC command line switch (NOT recommended)\"

Could anyone help me with this?
