Why won't my Crysis demo install?

Twice now i have downloaded the demo for crysis, from two different sources and both times I have gotten this error message right at the end...''some installation files are corrupt, please download a fresh copy and retry the installation.''then the self extractor says this:''CRC failed in Object~1.Cab''''unexpected end of archive''Also I've noticed that despite my computer telling me it has finished downloading, the file size both times was not bigger than 1.1Gb, while im pretty sure the demo is meant to be 1.9Gb or something.Can someone lend a hand? I've been looking forward to this for so long and can't believe it hasn't worked twice now. I don't have a fast internet connection so downloading a new version is a lengthy 3-4 hour process...

your download never completed, dude.Looks like the server you were getting it from dropped your connectionWhy won't my Crysis demo install?
i hate when a server drops connections gamespot does that to me alot
[QUOTE=''TeamR'']your download never completed, dude.Looks like the server you were getting it from dropped your connection[/QUOTE]You should be using a download manager so you can resume the download. And just a note....if your downloading 1.1gb in 3 hours, your connection is fast enough ;) You obvsiously didnt grow up in the 9600bps days
I am EXTREMELY pissed off right now, and both times at basically the same spot!!!!!
[QUOTE=''cat_empire'']I am EXTREMELY pissed off right now, and both times at basically the same spot!!!!![/QUOTE]You check how much free hard drive space you have? maybe you only have 1.1gb free...Anyway, you'll have to download it again. Use a download manager next time so if the server drops your connection or some other error, you can just continue from there
hahaha well i guess i am comparing to the people on here that claim they can download the whole thing in 20 minutes.can you recommend a good download manager?
nah i have 70 Gb free...

They have some software you can download that will make downloading these huge files much easier
thanks for all your help mate. I appreciate it!
no problemohave fun
i had the same problem even though i downloaded the demo from nzone and used a download manager... my problem was with sounds~1.cab however.i tried downloading the file separately but it didnt help, had to download the entire demo 1.77gb again this time from the EA server and t worked... sorry wish i could help but to upload a 400+ mb file on my meager 256 kbps is murder.also about the disk space prob (am 99% sure this isnt a prob cuz of the CRC error): check if u have atleast 2gb in the drive where ur temporary folder is , by default its in the drive ur current windows stup is in. this is because the self extractor extracts to the temp directory before installing from there
