Windows 7 RC d/l stuck


Recommended Posts

I tried downloading the 64-bit version of Windows 7 Release Candidate 1 from Microsoft's official site. I'm using Firefox, and the download got stuck at 94%. I searched Google, and found one site where someone else was complaining about the 64-bit version getting stopping above 90%. Is this true, and is there any solution?

How long has it been stuck at 94% for and how long have you been downloading it? I've seen a few similar issues with the DL getting stuck where you are but no real solutions other than starting over.

The download started at about 1 MB/sec and stayed roughly that the entire time. When it "got stuck" it said it was still downloading at about 2 MB/sec with a few minutes remaining but I waited fifteen minutes with no progress beyond 94%.

I'm trying with IE8 right now.

I had no problem D/L Win7 64-bit via Firefox. Maybe a glitch in a server or with your internet provider.

You should be able to restart the D/L with firefox. Good luck
