Problems w/ a Torrent

Post by SpicyCandy »

Heys guys, I recently attempted to redownload Halo: CE onto my computer just for a kick of nostalgia and the fact that I really like Halo.
I went on Piratebay and used http://thepiratebay.sx/torrent/8800194/ ... iplayer_PC that torrent, as it seemed like the most optimal one. Then I used uTorrent and it appeared to have no problems whatsoever. Same went for the installation of the game. However, upon starting it, the game just froze. Let me elaborate. Before a game starts, usually, we're presented with what companies made it right? First came Bungie, then Microsoft Studios. But after microsoft studios was over, it just froze, however the Main Menu soundtrack was playing in the background. I have tried other Torrent Downloaders and other torrents, but it's all the same for me. I have searched piratebay and found that one other person has the same problem as me, although I haven't been able to contact him. Any thoughts on this. I'm not all too tech savvy.

Probably not torrent related as you tried multiple ones. Try fully uninstalling and reinstalling.

Torrents are nasty. If all your torrent links don't work right try getting it from a warez site.

A simple driver update fixed the problem.
