CRC and I/O-errors, corrupted downloads!
Hi.
I have recently bought a new system, which is working fine aside from one thing. Every time I download a large file from the internet, I get a message saying that it is corrupted, or has a CRC or I/O-error.
What could be the component that's the cause of this?
I have tried using the same line with another computer, and then it works perfectly, besides, I used my old computer without problems, so I'm thinking it must be this computer.
I have run excessive ram tests, without getting any errors, so I'm thinking it is the harddrive or the motherboard (it has got a built-in network function).
Any ideas which is the faulty component, and what I should do now to solve this mystery?
As a side note, I have had this problem on an earlier computer, and all I did then was replace the harddrive, and the CRC errors stopped.
The HDD I'm using now is the same one that I replaced the old with, so I've taken it from my previous computer and installed it in my current one. It is only about a half year old, but maybe there is a possibility that I have damaged it when moving it to the new system?
I have a PCI network card that I could insert in one of the slots on the motherboard, if it doesn't work when I do that, it would be safe to presume that the motherboard isn't the faulty component, yes?
Anyway, any help is appreciated!
