I just bought a new Dell inspiron 3580 laptop. I have avg free, malwarebytes free installed. I also have winrar installed. I can not download games. It starts to dl and after 5 min or so it either fails or I get the archive is either in unknown format or damaged. I have the power settings set to never when plugged in. This is exaclty what I have on old laptop, and I had no problems downloading games. Any thoughts? Thank you.

Problem with the server? How/were are you getting the games from? It can't be the system because other things download/install just fine. How would the system know it's a game?

Dying drive? Most games tend to be larger. AVG might be a few hundred megs while games are many times bigger than that. I'm Installing GoW4 right now and it's 133.7GB. Perhaps your drive can't handle that?
