Downloaded and a download manager and neither will install
Any ideas

Open office says it fails an Integrity check
Download manger actually opens and starts to install then just stops after I have accpeted the terms and says it has failed

Is it windows or the files?
I have added programmes before but not from Intenet

Any ideas is there some setting in this OS as it seems unlikely both files are fubbarred especially as I downloaded open office from 2 different sites
Ta
This is Windows 7 and It was not my idea

Sounds like the programs aren't w7 compatible. Either that or you don't have full admin rights

Integrity check failing usually means the hash didn't match - the file is corrupt.

Download again.

If it's downloading fine, but your PC can't open and install big programs it sounds like your RAM is playing up. Do you get the occational crash? You can get the the odd broken block, only getting spotted when you open big things.

It can give you the same hash check fails, trying zipping up a huge file, then unzipping it again.
