Hello
1 does when you try to download a particular game or all games?
2 are you able to download other files?
3. what type of Internet do you have?
4. what browser you use to download the game?
I suggest to temporarily disable both antivirus program and see if you can download the game.
IMPORTANT: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable
your antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are
connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

Correction on wireless W8.1 as follows,
Find/locate connection network in "charms."
Right click on Wi Fi - select DISABLE-wait a minute then
RT click on Wi - Fi to ACTIVATE.
Connect to your internet service provider when you see your SSID.
Also a note if your printer or the wireless on cpu receiver
Activate Bluetooth.
I hope this helps.

Update Windows stuck in a loop. Keeps trying to download page 3 of 3, but never does, then restarts and is trying to download. Can't stop the loop to try something else.
The operating system is Windows Vista.
I found this as a solution and to share it here, I still have questions, but thinking might help someone.
Windows Vista and 7 update Reboot Loop Fix
Symptom: You have a update that is causing Windows Vista or Windows 7, stuck in an infinite loop. The problem usually manifests as a "step 3 of 3:0 % complete...". "followed by a restart which starts at the exact same message, not allowing you to get on your account of connection or a desktop at all. It's a pain, and he doesn't stop, even in Mode without failure or advanced trying last good known Configuration in the start menu.
Here is the short version for people who know how to get to tools to do this and if run System Restore from the installation DVD does not work: DELETE files
\Windows\WinSxS\cleanup.XML AND (as applicable)
\Windows\WinSxS\pending.XML and the infinite loop update will be set.
There are two ways to get the files, you need to delete. The easiest is to start your installation of Windows and the button 'Install now' DVD, click on the link located at the bottom left that says 'Repair your computer' open a command prompt and type:
del C:\Windows\WinSxS\cleanup.xml
del C:\Windows\WinSxS\pending.xml
The other way is to download a live Linux distribution such as the System of Tritech Service (which, unlike Vista or 7 DVD, can be booted from a USB flash drive for computers with no CD/DVD drive such as netbooks), open a command prompt, mount the file system and deleting the files. Assuming that your Windows installation is the first partition on the first hard disk, the following commands in rxvt or a console in the Tritech Service system should work:
Mount.NTFS - 3 g/dev/sda1/mnt/sda1
RM /mnt/sda1/Windows/*/cleanup.xml /mnt/sda1/Windows/*/pending.xml
umount/mnt/sda1
discount to zero f
Anyway you do it, this solution will stop the engine update loop reboot and let you return to your computer. You may need to make some corrections, additional or manual updates if you have problems, but unless your login screen and/or the Office should be accessible! Is a very annoying problem and I noticed that Google is looking for things like "stage of vista 3 3 restart" usually only provides information about how to run the system on a Vista DVD restore. Unfortunately, if there is a problem with an update, sometimes the system restore does not work and fail with obscure errors, so this info is vital.
Maybe it's your last chance to avoid giving to the top and reinstalling Windows, and we always like avoiding relocations!

I have Windows 7 and I was wondering if there was a version of Firefox called "Nightly"? The type of a Nightly.Ink file. Also, whenever I open 'Nightly' now, I get a popup of the program update and it says "update.exe". Is this a part of Firefox "Nightly" or is this a virus? Please answer this so I can relax. My email is [email protected]
Every night (a1) and (a2) Aurora built updated every day, so if you use such a developer version you will see an update every day (sometimes more than once a day in the case of a respin). These alpha versions are more intended to be experienced testers, because you may experience stability and regression of the questions at any time. The beta version (currently Firefox 25) can be useful for testing Web sites to see if they're going to get broken in the next Firefox release and file a bug report, if necessary.
Note that you must always install such version of development alongside a stable version and use a separate profile for each version folder.
