Yeah, guess I didn't say this in the first post - Sorry about getting Windows 8.

Well, if you cannot even download the file.. Are you using internet explorer?

Trying downloading Firefox and using that.

Trying Right Clicking on the link and picking 'Save Link As'

Hopefully one of those work. You may have some permission problems with downloading files? Windows 8 is a fucking headache.

Use the FixIt downloads from their site or follow the registry instructions. Alternatively you can remap it to do something useful.
