? to those using download Mgr.

Posted: 06-08-2006, 03:24 AM
With the slowwwwww connection of only a few KB's/sec, constant disconnects,
and only getting a few bits at a time, how confident should I be in the
integrity of the download? Is there a way to check it? That's is if I ever
get the thing downloaded in the first place! <g>

Yeah, I was wondering the same thing... Will it work after the constant
disconnect, reconnects. Oh, and how many days straight will it take?

I swear I could get it faster on a torrent. My first attempt got to 35%, and
i tried again thru FireFox instead... that wiped out the 35 % I had and now
I get "thank you for participating.... you've used the allowed number of
product keys".

Yes, but it would be good idea to do a CRC check on the ISO.

Hey Andre,

A newbie Q here. Can you detail how to do a "CRC check on the ISO" once the
download is done?

Thank you.

An MD5 / SHA1 would be good. It would be nice if MS would sign such file like
this with a PGP signature! They already sign their TechNet newsletters with
PGP (which often fails a PGP verification).

If anyone gets an MD5 hash, please post it somewhere!
