[Solved] Download from Microsoft servers does not complete

Download from Microsoft servers does not complete

I purchased Windows Vista Home Premium download from an internet source which gave a link to the Microsoft download server.
The file is a 3.02 GB iso image but I can only get 2.54 GB downloaded, even though the downoad dialog box shows download completed. I
followed the instructions in the Download FAQ question "What should I do if I cannot complete a download?", which says to delete all the history and temporary files.
It also says to set the temporary internet file size larger than the size of the file you
are downloading; however, IE won't allow a size larger than 1024.
My OS is Windows XP Home and I am using Internet Explorer 8.

If it is any help, the Microsoft file name is en_windows_vista_with_sp2_x86_dvd_342266.iso

Hey Gmhawaii,
 
You should be able to download a file of any size with the temporary internet file size of a much smaller amount.
Try to Save the download if you have been attempting to Open the download.
Also this could be caused by your antivirus.
You can
restart your computer in a clean boot that only has Microsoft software running by:
·         Click
Start
·         Click
Run…
·         Type
msconfig into the Open: field
·         Press
Enter on your keyboard
·         Click
Selective startup
·         Uncheck
Load startup items
·         Click the
Services tab
·         Check the
Hide all Microsoft services box
·         Click
Disable all
·         Click
OK
·         Click
Restart Now
Once your computer has finished restarting, test to see if you still get the same error from downloading.
If not then you just have to identify which service/startup item was causing the problem.
(unless you don’t want to troubleshoot the problem
further, in which case just set your boot back to normal in the msconfig tool)
·         Click
Start
·         Click
Run…
·         Type
msconfig into the Open: field
·         Press
Enter on your keyboard
·         Click the
Services tab
·         Check the
Hide all Microsoft services box
·         Check (Enable) the top half of the service boxes
·         Click
OK
·         Click
Restart Now
Once your computer has restarted, again test to see if the problem is still gone.
If so, then the services you enabled are good to stay.
Repeat the enabling process for half of the remaining disabled services and continue this process until the
problem returns or all services are enabled.
If the problem returns then you will need to test the last batch of services you enabled one by one to find which was causing the problem to occur.
 
If you enable all services and the problem still hasn’t returned:
·         Click
Start
·         Click
Run…
·         Type
msconfig into the Open: field
·         Press
Enter on your keyboard
·         Click the
Startup tab
·         Check (Enable) the top half of the service boxes
·         Click
OK
·         Click
Restart Now
Follow the same process as before, with testing after each restart.
If the problem hasn’t returned, go back and enable half of the remaining list of startup items and continue the process until the problem has returned.
Then you will need to
test the last batch of startup items you enabled one by one to find which causes the problem to occur.
 
Once you have identified which service/startup item causes the problem in Internet Explorer you will need to either disable/uninstall/update the program to avoid further problems.
 
Hope that helps, look forward to hearing back from you.
