Re: Norton Bootable Recovery Tool for NIS 2010

Mine worked from a restart. I did not turn off the computer. I just rebooted as it said to do.

Hello dbrisendine...et al,

 

dbrisendine wrote (reply to bjm_) re file size.

 

The issue is being checked into by Symantec.  We will be notified when they have corrected to files.  There is nothing wrong on your end.

I read your recent post that your download was larger ....[....]

 

May I have something wrong at my end as I am unable to download 300MB...only 250MB from posted links ?

That's the issue I was getting at.  I finally did get the 291MB download but I had to use a downloader to do so.  Some users are not having a timeout issue with the FTP server and some are.  If you can, try using FireFox to download and / or a free download accelerator.  The full file (291MB) seems to run fine once burned as an ISO image  but I (and others) was having trouble downloading the file.

I used Internet Download Manager to download it. That might be the reason it downloaded fine for me all those times.

Thanks for the info re timeout issue with the FTP server...I tried download via FF ~ 250MB....

I'll find a free download accelerator / downloader and try again.

Now that I know issue is on my end...I'll get it done.

bjm_,

Fresh Download is a good free downloader.

Let me know if you still can;lt get it and I wikll upload the file to my server and help you get it that way.

Hi Boofo

 

Thanks for the link....re Fresh Download

 

I run Vista.

Fresh Download ver 8.34  dated 09/09 (http://www.softsea.com/review/Fresh-Download.html) does not include Vista?

bjm_,

I would say try it as it should work on Vista also. But if it doesn't, there is Internet Download Manager (the one I use) but it is not free. You can do the 30-trial though. That should get you what you need. I recommend IDM, as it is the best as far as I am concerned. Well worth the money in the long run.

I'd like to thank everyone for providing all of the valuable information so far.
