A lot of corrupted files
Last response: in Windows 7
Hi,
I just installed Win 7 on my brand new rig and I have some strange issues. A lot of programs and games won't install because some files (from the installation package) are corrupted.
It happens to:
- AVG
- Armed Assault 2
- Armed Assault 2: Operation Arrowhead
- Battle Field Bad company 2
I bough the games online and tried to re-download them but it does not help. I had no problems installing them on my older PC.
It's kind of strange isn't it ?
After assembling the PC I did not install any drivers except the graphic drivers. All hardware is recognized. The OS seems to be stable
Any ideas ?
EDIT: After 5 retries of installation of Battlefield, it finally worked. That shows that the problem is not in the installation files. The other program still not working.

Hello again,
I can now confirm that sometimes when I execute a file it reports an "corrupt" error. And then if I execute it again, it works. So I would say there is something with the hard disk.
I also get sometimes a BSOD reporting a "bad_pool_header". I googled for it and it kind of confirm that there is something with the sata controller. See here.
In the link they say that a solution could be to update my chipset drivers but I'm not sure what that is. I have a Asus P7P55D Pro motherboard with an Intel i7 CPU. Could anyoe point me to the drivers that I should install/update ?
Edit, ok I will install the "Chipset" and "Sata" drivers that are in the "Dowanload" section of that link.
Thanks,
Tex

Best solution
I think the drivers solved the problem. I anyway had to send my motherboard back because of this problem but this "corrupted" errors were gone.
