Download won't work

by Will Sanders · in General Game Discussion · 12/20/2002 (4:29 pm) · 7 replies

I bought Orbz at about 2am and since then have not been able to download it. I get an error saying
"File not found on remote host"
"550 orbz_1_100.exe: No such file or directory"

I've emailed GarageGames customer support, but so far have heard nothing.

Thats odd. I downloaded it yesterday. I just tried the link again now and it still works.

Will, I also have a note into Rick at GG. We'll get to the bottom of it - sorry for the trouble.

I just noticed that the filename seems incorrect. It should be orbz_1_00.exe.

I did hear from Rick and he is looking into the issue. In the meantime, can you double check for us that the link is not working and that the reported filename is accurate?

Also, can you tell us what browser you are using when trying to download the file?

Thanks,
Justin

Funny thing. I tried again at about 9:10am this morning and it didn't work. Then I tried a few minutes later just to make sure and it did. Weird.

Anyway, I have it now and it's great. Thanks!

Will,

I forgot to mention its a "magic" button :)

Seriously, I'm glad your back in business. Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Justin

I'm new to this and not very computer literate but I purchased and downloaded orbz and all I get is a bunch of jiberish text when I open it? What do I do? Michael

hello, I'm sorry I don't have a reply but a similar problem. I purchased ORBZ from realarcade;Before our harddrive went,the game worked. Once it was fixed by a computer tech, I re-downloaded the game for my son; but when I clicked the icon, this is the exact message I received:
Orbz was unable to find a compatible display driver. Check your video card vendor to see if updated device drivers are available. Any thoughts on this, anyone???? Also Iused realarcades help site "live chat" twice and no one was able to rectify the situation, so they gave me a credit back and I have since uninstalled it. My son really wants to play it, though. Any help is greatly appreciated!!
Thanks, Candi
