Clarification Request
Unable to initialize installer GUI
Sep 8, 2011 2:47AM PDT

This issue happens with every download I try to do on CNET, but I have no issues any where else for downloads. This has been going on for a few weeks to a month or so. I trust this site for downloads and rely on it heavily, can someone please provide a specific solution for this issue that many are hqaving...

Are you using the download with the CNET Wrapper?

If so, try the "direct download" right underneath or nearby the big button.

Need to know more? Read the current top post in this forum.
