Lets have a Winge / Re: MEGA
« Last post by Beergut on Thu 19 Jun 2025 22:26:41 »I had the same issue a while back Ratso. Downloads would just stop mid way with no warning or reason. I spent ages looking for answers to no avail.
Then just as suddenly as the problem started, it vanished one day. no problems since. I wish I could say it was something I did, but that just wasn't the case.
And Sunny, anyone who programmed in Cobol has my complete and utter respect. I tried learning it at night school and failed utterly. I did manage to master Borland Pascal though and became pretty adept at Dbase III.
I also remember those text games, acoustic couplers you put on the mouthpiece or earpiece of your phone, and the very early graphic games like Kings Quest and Space Quest.
I must be getting old...

« Last post by Ratso on Tue 17 Jun 2025 02:20:29 »Like I said Sunny, I've used Mega for years without any problems, and this issue is recent but can be overcome with patience. I'm not that patient, and that is down to me. Please keep using Mega if it works for you.
