Hey guys, jw if you all could help with a computer issue. I'm trying to DL patch 4.2 but when it gets to a certain point the launcher crashes. When I mouse over it, the mouse then freezes along with the entire computer, resulting in me having to hold the power button down and force restart :(

Any ideas? I tried defragging at a friends suggestion but it didn't work..

Tons, I have about 250gb free

Thinking back, I had a similar problem when I tried to DL wow onto this comp when I first got it. About halfway thru the bc DL, it would freeze up and when I moused over it, the whole comp froze.

I tried downloading LOTRO the other day because a friend wanted me try it, and the same thing happened to me. I think it has something to do with the p2p system all these companies are using now. Not sure what the fix would be.

Oh, and USD...I changed my mind about Rift...I played some more of it, and it's actually pretty good, I'm just going to need a new computer to run it, which I should have by the end of the summer. There should already be a Jubbergun on your shard if you look. I'll be buying it in the next month or so.

Mostly so that I have a game to play at work, where I have way too much down-time. HA HA!!!

Aestu no longer retired. Or hacked. The draw of a fire mount was too much!

I know everyone wants threads to evolve naturally, but I am pretty concerned about this damn issue. I don't have a hard copy of patch 4.2 to throw into the cd drive like I did when DLing wow. Is there someway to erase whatever the background downloaded and re-DL it?

Look up the mirror sites on wowhead.com and try to DL that way? You should just be able to run the patch manually after you DL it.

Yeah, generally whenever I've had a patching issue with the WoW client, I just go find a mirror and "manually" patch it that way. Try it.

Try turning off P2P? I'm not sure if it will help with the crashing, but I know it makes the patching process about 3x as fast for me.

I'd check Control Panel/Administrative Tools/Event Viewer, System & Application for any dangerous errors around the time you experienced that.

A program freezing up and locking up your computer like that is odd. The only things it's touching are network, disk, memory.

Google: patch 4.2 direct download.

1. http://www.wowstead.com/wow/characters/ ... stu/verify

2. Midsummer ice chip

3. (Unforeseen bonus) - 4.2 changes rolled over Aestu's achievement points to EXACTLY 13,500 and putting my OCD at ease

4. No plans to actually play the game besides doing Midsummer dailies and perhaps the new questlines

5. It's not my $$$$$

Oh I forgot to remind you guys, I'm computer illiterate :)

Idk what a mirror or p2p or all that jazz is lol. Anyone have a set of steps? I'd also like to thank all of you for helping me out, I'm pissed that this happened today of all days because it's the only day of the week that I can goof off for most of the day. Every other day I have to get up early and sleep late. I was looking forward to exploring the new patch today :(
