On a side note, nice tutorial, but i wouldnt consider it a release, next time put in tutorial section :D

Good point. No idea if a mod is interested in moving this, as it is somewhat both. I am releasing a tree of all download links while at the same time I am giving a tutorial on how to install most of those programs and what to do with them.
 
Hello i need help i downloaded the New All Right Thailand (WarZ.rar ) but when i try to open it i cant ( the file isnt a valid ) with which program i have to use it or how :( help me please
 
i did and with PowerArchiver too but keeps saying the same , and when i go to the mega link it says 4.32GB but i downloaded twice and says 4.31gb , im going to download it again
 
hey man please help


First, uninstall SQL. Then, only install Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 RTM - Express with Management Tools and try to backup. If that doesn't work, install Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Service Pack 1 and try to backup again. If that doesn't work, install Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Service Pack 2 and to try backup again. If that doesn't work, install Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Service Pack 3 and try to backup again. The .bak is likely created in one of these 4 versions.
 
but i need to uninstall the Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 RTM - Express with Management and install the service pack 1 2 or 3

Very nicely written. Far better than my original post and very nicely organized.

How to remove new keys, and put old xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx keys???

Please put that into the Help Section, it has nothing to do with this topic.
You'll most likely not get a resolution since people aren't looking in this thread to help you out.

I know this question is a bit old bud. But you need to use WinRar nothing else. It is packed in WinRar version 5 format which means it "needs" WinRar to extract it and most likely not your download.
