It's a new build and everything works fine. I'm having trouble D/L large
files. I'm on DSL ATT/Yahoo. I d/l ok but when I run the file *.exe or *.zip
I get an error saying the file is currupted and failed the check sum. Where
would I start looking for this problem?

Thanks
Bob

Spell out the detail of the new system.

The Asus AN8E nForce 4 Ultra would do that, and it was due to a nvidia driver problem.
 
you can use split software or u mention u are use winzip for file
comparsion.
using Advanced system optimizer you can repair crupted zip files

The source of the corruption needs to be fixed properly.

Would this be the effects of the buggy Nvidia hardware firewall ?
(Called ActiveArmor or something ?)

If you have one of those, try disabling it. Or use a separate
NIC and see if the download problem disappears. I think the problem
had something to do with "hardware offload", but disabling it
is the easiest thing to try.

For other info on A8N-E, have a look in the Asus hosted (but not
supported) forum:
