I just got an awesome deal. Nice computer speakers, a printer, and a Pentium II running Windows 98 SE + CD-RW and DVD-ROM drives. For $35.
Im planning on a wiping Windows in favor of Ubuntu or some other distro (haven't picked definitely yet).
I plug everything in, connect my DWL-122 USB Wifi dongle and am set right? I have a 10MB/S Wi-Fi connection. The strange thing is that all my downloads are corrupted. Ive tried with Opera, Firefox and IE, none of the programs I download run because the OS says the installers are corrupted. Then I install BitComet (A BitTorrent client) and start downloading the .iso for the Ubuntu Server CD. after a couple hours I had downloaded 600MB of data--525MB of it had been discarded as "junk data". I never had a problem when I was using the DWL-122 on my XP box. is this a problem with Windows or with DWL? has anybody heard of this happening before?
