i just downloaded the trial version of DarkBasic (1.13) but when I go to install it, it says "This file contains invalid data", please help me. It seems to have downloaded ok.

I have a new PC running WIN XP SP1+

Is DB Classic incompatible with win XP?

DBC is compatible with XP, so that's not your problem.

Try re-downloading it, it sounds like you have a corrupt file there.

I suggest not using any download accelerators as they can sometimes corrupt files ( although, not very often ). If downloading it again causes the same problems, try getting the Lite version, and see if that works, if it does, then there was a problem with the download of the Trial, If it doesn't, then there is a problem with you downloading files from TGC's server...

You might need to contact Rich if that is the case.

Hope I Helped...

Check the file size matches exactly what is given on the download page, that error usually means "didn't fully download".

Cheers,
