A friend of mine who is a software engineer downloaded some games for me that games for the blind sent me. The links looked fairly easy to download and unzip, but only one game downloaded correctly it seems. The other games have the games itself but no help files or sounds that do come with all the games. Is there a simple fix for this or do the games need to be downloaded again? Any help appreciated.

My first thought was that the archives were somehow corrupted, but then you wouldn't be able to run the setup at all. I'm really not sure, but you could try downloading them again and see if that solves the problem.

well, that didn't work and my download time ran out. My friend said the games only had the game files no sound files or instructions. I do believe corruption happened somewhere. My question: Where can I buy games on CD or DVD disks that are already put together and I just have to put them on my computer? I googled the question but can't find an exact answer. I would rather deal with a disk rather than game software on line. For some reason, I never have luck with those types of downloads. any help is appreciated.
