    1. Check your HDD space.

    2. Confirm the download directory isn't to a media or external drive: dvd burner, floppy drive, blu-ray player, etc.
    The default download directory is: "C:\Program Files (x86)"
    *NoTe: if you have a 32bit OS instead of a 64bit, the default is this: "C:\Program Files"

    3. Have you downloaded this game to that computer in the past?

    4. Is your firewall / Anti-Virus interrupting the download?

    (This forum supports BBC, but not HTML. Lame.)

    ok back up. it says u don't have permission to download it to (x86) folder?

    that's where it NEEDS to go. the folder named "Program Files" is for programs that support 64bit applications and this game isn't one of them.

    you need to log into the admin account on that computer and try downloading again.

    Go here: "Control Panel > User Accounts and Family Safety > User Accounts" and make sure your account is set as Administrator.

    To check your HDD space go to "My Computer" and click on "OS (C:\)" on the bottom of the window, you'll see "total size" and "space free".

    another issue could be ur router/modem resetting (thats happened to me once or twice) but i doubt that would be it cuz u would get a error saying something like that

    Ok. Go back into "Control Panel > User Accounts and Family Safety > User Accounts > "your account name".

    Click "Change User Account Control Settings" and set the bar 1 down from the top. This way you won't get messages when crap gets saved to temp files.

    And yes, Cabal will save one every time you start the game because it logs online info.
