How come i'm not able to download a thing from the 3rd party DriverPacks??? Direct links won't work so i tried logging in into the ftp account...but alas! didn't work either. i'm thinking that the latest user id/password (As of June 6, 2007 - http://forum.driverpacks.net/viewtopic.php?id=329) supplied by bashrat was changed. or maybe the server was...hmmm

was thinkin of an auto update wherein u dnt have to download the the whole dp package but instead only appends what's new on the latest version. some kind of a patch of some sort. that way you don't have to download large files when it comes to select DriverPacks.

On second thought, if 7-zip's having problems with its "Test Archive" feature, then i guess theres no harm if Bashrat would still be able to supply us with the hashes. Just a thought...

Ei thanks man..never knew the GUI version of 7-zip had that feature. been using winRAR ever since. now there's no point asking for the hashes.
Thank you Helmi, you were a great help!

@Bashrat
can you supply hashes or checksums (md5 or SFV) for the DriverPacks so as to verify the integrity of our downloads?
I've been encountering corrupted downloads lately. (Probably a faulty HDD)

Thanks & would greatly appreciate it if u can give in to this tiny request.

all dl links seem to be working fine now. big_smile

but i'm not using any download manager. though i'v got IDM installed but it wasn't enabled.

I know you're probably too busy with other things you've got lined up but can you shed some light as to why I'm having trouble downloading from your site.

Found these topics regarding the same problem:
http://forum.driverpacks.net/viewtopic.php?id=88
http://forum.driverpacks.net/viewtopic.php?id=40

Tried everything other users suggested but nothing worked.

twig123 thinks that my ip probably got banned. Is it?

I too have IDM installed though I seldom use it since the default firefox downloader is enough for me. Did not use it while trying to download the DriverPacks. Besides it eats a lot of my bandwidth.
IDM wasn't even running and is not integrated in my web browsers. Tried downloading using both IE and Firefox and the same error message comes up.

Forbidden

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.


Thanks in advance

Nope, not using any proxy servers. neither does my ISP. (At least not that i know of..)
I was able to download the latest drivers before, except for the latest releases of CPU, LAN & WLAN which were released recently.

How could my IP get banned?? i mean what could have i done to get banned? I don't recall doing something... also my ISP provides a dynamic IP.

Can anyone post a mirror temporarily for the latest releases? even for an hour or so... with permission from bashrat of course.

It really is strange knowin that i'm the only one not able to download the DriverPacks.
