Hi JScones, thank you for the interest. Having done much troubleshooting here is what I think the problem is:

I installed an nForce4 SLI Motherboard (MSI Neo4 Platinum) during a recent upgrade. There are two potential problems with this board when downloading files from the internet. One, either the Network Controller or the onboard ethernet causes pauses while downloading corrupting the files even though they show up as complete. Two, the motherboard has issues with data corruption if using a Matrox HDD with a SATA interface controller. I doubt my problem is number 2 as I use the IDE controller and have no problem transferring stored data. I still have some research to do to grasp the problem completely.

I am going to download the newest network and ethernet drivers and see if that fixes the problem. If not, I may have to disable both the Network Controller and Ethernet Card and use a PCI Ethernet Card with my router.

If that fails I will probably buy a non nForce4 motherboard and install it. (Hopefully it will not be that drastic.)

As you pointed out the files on this site a fine.

The problem lies with my system, therefore the responsibility to troubleshoot and fix it is mine. (Though any help is always appreciated!)I hope this made sense and I am sorry for the long post.

Sincerely,
Greif8
