x64 Download Issue
"Mark D. VandenBerg" wrote: Question for And Is it at all conceivable that the checksum that you have from MSFT for Windows Vista x64 Beta 2 is incorrect?

VandenBerg" wrote: Andre suggested in a different thread that if I can burn the iso I have to a disc and it can be verified as a good burn, that I attempt an installation since the error, if any, will occur long before any files are copied. I just don't have the mental stability to try that! I'm going to give it a couple of days and then try the download again.

Also I'm using the same program with the 4.1 GB download. "Mark D. VandenBerg" wrote: Yes. I have downloaded x64 twice and both of the files I downloaded have 4,309,368,832 bytes. If you check in many places both Andre and Zack have published this number. But when I check either file I have downloaded with FileCheckMD5 it hashes a different MD5 than what is supposed to be, according to the strings that Andre has provided. Curiously, when I check the same file with Nero, as suggested by Andre, I almost immediately get a "Runtime Error" stating that Nero was asked to close in an "unusual way." Even more curious, both of the files I downloaded report the same size in bytes, which is the correct size, and both files report the same MD5 string, which is incorrect. I am using GetRight as a download manager, and successfully downloaded Vista x86 Beta 2 with no issue, and also SUSE 10.1 dvd iso with no issue today, so I am starting to think it is the file on MSFT's server that may be wonky. Either way I have 8GB of useless data. Does any one else have the same issue or perhaps a solution?
