Problems installing Xampp on W7

Hi, would appreciate anyone's help on installing xampp on my laptop. Following the installation guide for Xampp v1.7.3 (basic) using the EXE....... xampp seems to download ok but when I go to install I keep getting an error msg: "Some installation files corrupt. Please download a fresh copy and retry the installation."

I have tried 4/5 different mirrors but keep getting the same msg each time and it's listing different files as corrupted...... would appreciate any thoughts on how to get it onto my machine?

Thanks

Have you used the direct link to Sourceforge? http://sourceforge.net/projects/xampp/files/XAMPP%20Windows/xampp-win32-1.7.3.exe/download

If that doesn't work, try downloading the zip file, extract it, and then run the setup_xampp.bat file.
