Did you verify your download by either the SH1
or MD5 sum to ensure it is a good download?

 

[Guest]

yes and it is also directly from windows site to download, so it should still
be good, right now im redownloading AGAIN and seeing what it comes up with
but where did everyone else get there 3rd party?

Hi,
Directly from a MVP-this works GREAT-free too. And it gives ya the
abilty to change burn speeds-I went with 1x-no problems-ever!!
Burncdcc- http://www.terabyteunlimited.com/utilities.html
About 1/2 down the page;you'll see burncdcc.

"Size of file [vista...iso] not valid" is the error I get when I try this
program.

 

[Guest]

When I tried this I got an error that the "size of the file" was "not valid".

 

[Jeff]

Where did ya download the iso from?
Did you use the AKAMI download manager-? It's causing problems; for
some ppl.

Yes, I did. I've tried several programs to try and burn this to a disc. But I
get some kind of error message from each, and can't proceed. I got the
farthest in the process with your Burncdcc suggestion...but then another
error message. Is there a better alternative? We're all into instant
gratification, but maybe it's better to wait to get a DVD in the mail.

Here's what I tell everyone;
#1 Akami seems to be giving some folks grief. And on the download page for
rc1-you'll see;on the right side, the same links.
But;they are under a header; that says; Use your own browser/download
manager.
That's exactly what you want to do.
First; don't use your browser; get a download manager;and install it.-- I
chose free download manager;it's free; and it.s here :
www.freedownloadmanager.org
then, choose your version under that header; the download manager you
have installed-- see above--lol;
will grab it. And depending on what one you use; you can adjust the speed.
If you pick the one above;in the options;at the top;you'll see;
optimization.
Open it;and set it to your download speed;default is 512kbs- I chose t1 and
was averaging 775kbs.
It works great too.
Then burn it with burncdcc. Seems from what you are saying; the one you have
is messed up.
Burn slow too. I used 1x
