    I am with internode and am getting the same error with Halo 5 preload. Had the problem with Forza 6 but a physical disc install solved the problem. I do not want to have to buy a physical disc of a game I have already bought just to install and play it.

    My understanding that is in way possible since all the loading you will do will be off the disk. Your best bet would probably be to cancel your order and then go digital. Not gonna lie the 40+gb took pretty much all day on Tuesday.

    No you cant and I wouldnt bother its faster installed via disc.

    Kind of off topic here but I paid for GTA5 over Xbox Live and downloaded it was thinking it would take the 3rd and last place for the 20k points in the rewards program where you must buy 3 games does anyone know when it will update on the site for the points?

    there is a way. I have bought the digital copy and preordered the game. I am allowed to download the game before release. I can now copy and move the game to my external hard drive. then I can bring the hard drive over to my friends house he can copy and
    paste on his xbox. now he has the game allready preinstalled when you put your game in it will play instead of resinstalling since the preinstall will ask for a disk if you tried to play it with out disk
