- Hi, Ronnie
Hi, my name is Lester Cuadra, I live in Nicaragua. I love to test this Windows, but when the download finished I got a fatal error message on screen. It has a question too, something like this: The file you downloaded is corrupted or had a fatal error, do you want to download it again, press yes or not to cancel. I used the Download Manager Software it appears from Microsoft, but I have to download it again and I am scared if this message appears again. I spend almost 15 hrs downloading this file just to receive this message....It is frustrating, gentlemen...I need to know if it is possible to receive a DVD Copy in order to test it. I will appreciate if you can help me and in this way we can get a kind of friendship and partnership. Thanks. Lester Cuadra from Nicaragua. This is my email address if you want to help me: lestercuadra@hotmail.com Hi, Ronnie

Lester, assure that you are using IE for the download (FF won't work correctly).
Before you start the download, in IE, choose Tools / Internet options, and on General tab, for Browsing history - click the Delete button. then start the download.
Hope that helps.
Ronnie - Nice! Thanks!

Kris don't be too quick there about FF. I down loaded and burn the ISO to DVD all from within FF with no problems and on the first try.Hi, Ronnie

FF worked perfectly fine for me. I refuse to use IE as it sux imho...- I had the same problem, It appears the problem for me was Windows IE8 - Firefox and Chrome worked first time......Come on Microsoft pull your finger out and give us a OS that we can download and use without problems and put movie maker and picture gallery back into windows 7. If you take all the apps away from the OS we may as well use Linux....
