Jito463 & JoeMSFN Thanks very much for the advice, one test later and one f****d memory stick! I hope that does the trick now. One other tip I would appreciate I will now replace the RAM can I use 400 MHz PC3200 RAM with a CPU that has an FSB of 333 MHz, I intend to upgrade it to a 400 MHz soon and just thought I could start buying RAM for it now? Thanks all who helped Garry.

Could it be a hardware problem? I have reformatted my Hard Drive loads of times due to this and other problems? Thanks, Garry.

I will do but I am not convinced it is always the download, could it be being corrupted by something on my PC? Or when it is unzipped if I can get that far! Cheers, Garry.

No nothing, I didn't think download managers were necessary with Broadband? Cheers, Garry

Hi all, My first post My problem is that everytime I download and attempt to install a large file usually over 100Mb sometimes smaller, I get an error message either " CRC error" Or "this file is corrupt" error or something similar. The files are not coming from one place they are all legitamate(!) some are payware programmes etc... My system specs are as follows: Win XP SP1 ( Have tried pre service pack 1 and SP2) AMD Athlon 2800XP Radeon 9800Pro 1 Gig Ram ( All budget stuff) BT Broadband 1Mb I am currently using Sygate firewall, have also tried Zonealarm (was told this could be the problem) AVG Antivirus also have tried Norton. I am really pulling my hair out with this as it so annoying. Apart from this my PC appears to be running fine. Thanks for any help! Cheers, Garry.
