I've been having the exact same problem here. It was suggested that my Anti-Virus software was causing the problem but even completely disabling AVG and turning off the firewall in Windows 7 Pro did not help so I'm in the same boat you are. Others appear to have no problem even using the same op system. My computer's processor is a 64 bit dual core AMD. My workaround has been to download the firmware using FTP and manually move all the files into the proper directory.
