Scratch Download Not Working.

I'm trying to get scratch on my Netbook running Windows 7, but when the download starts, It just freezes on 2.9 Mb and says I need to wait something ridiculous like 2 hours.
It does this on both IE and Chrome.

Re: Scratch Download Not Working.

All I can suggest is restarting the computer, and trying to download it again...  hmm

Re: Scratch Download Not Working.

What download version is it? If you are downloading 1.2 or lower, try downloading 1.3 or 1.4.
If you are using Windows 98, then try try downloading Scratch 1.0 image.
I've got an Scratch 1.0 image if you want it.

Come on, try Broadcastic OS 2.0. It has 3 editions for businesses, media, and home. Also, there's Broadcastic OS Metro Edition Release Candidate.

Re: Scratch Download Not Working.

I think it's a problem with your connection/computer.
Mine downloads fine! It's almost done downloading as I write this...

Can you download other types of files? Try downloading big files on other sites and see if that works for you.
