Error 13: Invalid Data

Anyone getting this error when trying to install GalCiv.
I have received a few reports of this and am trying to collect some
more data to solve this problem. If you are experiencing the problem here is
what I am looking for:

1)How much drive space is available on your drive where you are installing to? How much space is available on the drive that your system TEMP directory is located.
2) I need more information about the file that you are having problems downloading. Look in the following directories for the file in question.
As an example, if the file is weapons.mdl, look for both weapons.mdl and weapons.md_
(Note: the locations may different on your system depending where you have installed the Drengin Game Manager or what operating system you are using.)

C:\DOCUME~1\[YOURLOGONNAME]\LOCALS~1\Temp\drengin\gc1\base\Gfx\
C:\DOCUME~1\[YOURLOGONNAME]\LOCALS~1\Temp\drengin\gc1\base\Gfx\
C:\Temp\drengin\gc1\base\Gfx\
C:\Windows\drengin\gc1\base\Gfx\
C:\PROGRA~1\Drengin.net\galciv\Gfx\

For each file you are able to find I need to know the modified date/time and size of the file.

Also, if you have WinZip on your system, see if you are able to open the files with the underscore (ie:weapons.md_) with winzip. And if you are, are you able to extract that file?
After you have written that information down, please

BTW the last time I got this error file(which I am not anymore), I tried to upgrade to the newest multimedia download(the last 35 meg download) and the error reset the gc1_multimedia.xml file to nothing so I have to do this all over again.

This was when we all had the one bad file and the program tried fruitlessly to install the files in the gc1.xml which I had already downloaded BEFORE downloading the multimedia. Somehow in the process it erased everything instead of singling out the one file for redownload.

Also, it isn't copying what I have downloaded in the gc1_multimedia.xml file in the c:\windows\temp\drengin\data\gc1 into the c:\program files\dregin\data\gc1 file when I cancel out of the process to finish it later, so that when I restart I start all over. It would be nice to have a resume or something.
