    If you're running Microsoft Windows Vista, please be sure to use the right-click, Run As Administrator option. You may also have some luck searching for, and re-running, Perfect_World_International.exe -- that's the extractor, and sometimes it can result in a single broken file.

    The more likely issue, though, is that your file download was corrupted, or terminated before completion. Using the Torrent method with a robust torrent client such as utorrent, or using one of the official Mirrors, will likely take care of this problem.

    Hi, I downloaded the client again, but this time I downloaded it as a torrent, I used azureus. I put right -click and run as administrator (because I have vista) but it still tells me that data1.pck it broken. Please tell me what to do...

    Do you have permissions to access those files? Try moving everything to a directory such as Documents and trying install.exe again.

    Hi, I'm so sorry having to bother you so much, but I copied everything to Documets tried intalling it and it keeps telling me the same thing, data1.pck is broken. But I think maybe if you could pass me a folder that contains just data1.pck, I add it to the client, delete the old one (the broken one), I think it could work.

    It sounds like you've got a connectivity issue. uTorrent (or other robust torrent clients) will be able to deal with that problem. It's usually minor, and Ryuuzaki has a good guide on the matter, and his Alternative Method for Corrupt Files using Direct Download (with a quick tweak for the changes to the installer) may be able to save you a remarkable amount of time :
    If you used the Direct Download method, rename the zip file you already downloaded to "Perfect World International.exe" (i.e. remove the underscores). [ From the My Documents/Downloads folder ]

    Download a bit torrent program, such as uTorrent.
    Download the torrent controller and open it with your torrent program.

    You should then be asked where y ou want to save the file. Browse to the directory where the original Perfect World International.exe file is located, and click OK. The torrent program should then start checking the integrity of the file and correct any corrupted files. You can also right-click on the file in the download area, and select Force Re-check to make extra sure.

    kammie has an alternative guide if the above is confusing.
    1. download the torrent
    2. double click it, or just open it with utorrent
    3. LET IT DOWNLOAD FOR LIKE 1 MB ---> this way, utorrent generates the entire file
    4. now close utorrent and the download
    5. copy your corrupted zip file that you have downloaded before to the folder that utorrent created and overwrite that file
    6. open utorrent but do NOT start the download, instead rehash it by right clicking and selecting 'forece recheck' (or something like this, currently do not have bittorrent client installed)
    7. after awhile (about 3 minutes if u have a fast computer) it should say u have near 100% download
    8. continue download
