|
|
Hi, anyone know any good sites for downloading PC games? Sites like Limewire just seem to be full of corrupted files or viruses. |

Despite you being a toffee I would be happy to suggest a few places. Just tell us whether you use a bittorrent program or not. |

Despite the probability of you being from the Red side, I'll tell you that I've downloaded BitTorent, but I am quite new to using torrents, so any hints would be appreciated. |

isohunt
torrentspy
mininova

Isohunt looks good, but when I try to download anything it goes to my download manager which downloads the file in a second. Clearly something is amiss. I have downloaded uTorrent, but it doesn't appear to be a word in edgeways. |

Sounds like you are only downloading the 'Tracker' file. Once you download this little file, and yes, it should only take a second, then you have to double click that file. Where did you download the tracker files to? Desktop? Find it and click it. uTorrent should go into action then. |

...and then let your torrent software download the torrent. It will most likely take forever. Just let it run in the background and forget about it. In a few hours, or days, you'll have the game you want. |
