Trouble downloading PosteRazor
« on: January 07, 2011, 12:55:51 pm »
Hi there,

I wanted to enlarge a pattern today and then discovered to my horror no PosteRazor as I forgot my pc crashed and I am using another pc. So I thought no prob just download it and then get on with it, but nada. It downloads but when I try to start it up it shuts down the pc. Any ideas on what might be the problem, tried working it in bothe explorer and firefox, same problem with both.
I now only realize how often I did use PosteRazor to alter the size of things.

Seems like it might be a corrupt file!

Clean it out completely (I recommend "Revo Uninistaller") and try downloading the file again.

David, yes you will need to download Revo Uninistaller. Just do a search for it on the internet.. Once downloaded and installed use it to remove PosteRazor. Then try to download a fresh copy of PosteRazor and reinstall it.  8)

Thanks guys,
Did what you suggested, but nada, the problem remains, now my "clever"nephew just wondered in from his vacation in SA and says that the pc I am using has 1 video card that sometimes malfunctions that's why he build a new one. He wonders if this might have anything to do with the download problem I am having.
I can get the download to start no problem, but once I have downloaded it the pc shuts down automatically. When starting up again there is no problem and when I then try to start  PosteRazor the same thing happens. I have tried to download it from different sites and all give me the same hassle.
Maybe I will just have to learn to live without PostRazor for a while and do what I did before and use the Xerox at work to enlarge patterns.
