Question Large Games Fail to install Checksum errors

[RyanElliott]

Need some help,
having some issues now with certain games not installing which previously wasn't a problem,

I highly doubt its the CPU (I5 8400) , Ive run a memory check which came back ok (16Gb 2x8GB corsair vengeance LPX 2666mhz) the motherboard (MSI B360M-PRO-VH)

Problem is games seem to start to install then at random times during installation then i get a error saying An error occurred whilst trying to copy a file the source file is corrupted checksum error,
I can install the same files on other computer with no problem installs fine with no error , Also when trying to download Destiny 2 at random times during the download it will just come up as failed and to try again, i get this multiple times within the 100Gb download,
Issue seems to be only on certain games as ive downloaded and run Anthem and battlefield 5 without any problems at all,

I thought it was a motherboard issue but i have replayed it with a new one

Does anybody have any experience with this or able to help?
Cheers

What hard drive are you using? how is it formatted?

 

[RyanElliott]

New issues i have a 10GB rar file fails to extract files, also cant downlaod the new Nvidia drives just says failed to download drivers

Can you download any files? Try "Crystal Disk Info". install it if you can and see if it highlights any issues

Its strange i've downloaded Anthem and Resident Evil 2 fine and they play fine but then i get games like GTA V (Downloads fine fails to install but if i copy files on to anther PC the game installs file) Destiny 2 ( downloads so much then says failed to download, if i download on another PC then copy the files over the game works but i get crashes a lot)

just ran Crystal Disk Info heath status says good on both drives

Suspecting the harddrives highly. Run chkdsk/f for each of your disks, and if it tells "chkdsk found problems but fixed it/couldn't fix it" we'll see

where are you downloading the games from? steam? 10GB rar files spell illegal software torrents or something funny

 

[RyanElliott]

ill run chkdsk/f now and see what comes back and no! nothing is illegal i use Steam and Battle.net to download all my games all paid for the 10GB rar file is backed up files i rar them to keep them all together and it keeps my back up drive clean its all sorted my dates
