I myself have unsuccessfully downloaded Windows 7 a total of 6 times, from 3 different computers, 3 different ip address etc. 98%, 99%, 100% - This file is currupt blah blah, and their downloader deletes the file! (It appears to be a problem with the downloader, not the actual Win 7 image) - Apparently if you roll back java versions and run software thats not updated , it works, BUT why should you have to jump through hoops to download a demo! Anyway, I downloaded through a Torrent, verified the file with original specs and it worked first time, quickly and efficiently. I used the number given by MS and its a go.
