File download not working

The audio update file keeps timing out.
All other driver files downloaded but the audio one fails just before the 7.45 MB end of file is reached with a connection reset.
I'm having memory allocation crashes in XP SP2  ever since the Windows updates this past weekend. Happens when I try to file save in some applications.
Figured I would try all update files.

You have software and or Firewall issues.

It works fine from 3 different ISP and 3 different types.

CABLE =ok
DSL = Ok
Dial up = OK

Try DOS WINDOW FTP and put the file in C:\

Run CMD.EXE
Then CD\
then in the dos window type FTP

Then Open ftp.dell.com
login as anonymous
password is guest@
then Debug
then hash
then cd audo
then get r78477.exe


It looks like this
