I am doing an online course on Embedded systems on EDX. I need to work on Keil for ARM and was instructed to download and install mdk474.exe. I have tried at least 10 times but the installer stops working after working for some time.I have tried troubleshooting compatibility problem but it didn't help.Which browser should I use to download the setup?.I have windows 8 64 bit operating system.I had keil uvision 4 for programming 8051 which I have completely removed.Instructions which followed:edxorgutaustinx.s3.amazonaws.com/.../download.html. Please help me solve this problem as soon as possible.
Note that many web browsers remembers previous downloads.
So if they have already retrieved a broken download, they will continue to produce the same broken file again and again if you try to download again.
So when it fails with one browser - switch to another. Or get the "wget" program and download from the command line.
If you happen to sit behind a proxy, then your download might fail whatever program you may try to run - then check if you can download using https instead to force an encrypted transfer.
And if you have a MD5 - verify if the retrieved file has the same value.

Thank you all for your reply. The file size is 576.82MB but MD5 sum is wrong as I verified it. I used chrome but now I will try to download it from firefox. I downloaded it from an internet cafe(had good internet speed) where I used a browsing account on the computer and I don't know if it created a problem.I took the setup in a pen drive and tried to install it in my laptop and I failed to install it.I even stopped my antivirus from working and I have administrative rights on my laptop. I will give a try on what you suggested and let you know.
