Hi I am having a problem getting DOSBox 0.70 installed. Can anyone help, please?

Every time I click the install I get the following error:

16 bit MS-DOS Subsystem

C:\...\DOSBOX~1.EXE
The NTVDM CPU has encountered an illegal instruction.
CS:0ded IP:02bd OP:63 6f 6e 74 65 Choose 'Close' to terminate the application.

I am running Windows XP Pro SP2 on a Pentium 4 3.00 GHz processor.
ATI Radeon X800 128 MB Graphics card,
1 GB of memory.

Broken download? Re-dowload it from the official location (see dosbox.sf.net)
and, while at it, download 0.71.

Thanks that was the problem. I tried 3 times with my download accelerator and it was broken all three times, but as soon as i disabled the accelerator, the program worked.

I think he/she might be referring to disabling acceleration using DXDIAG.

8 GB GeForce GTX 1070 G1 Gaming (Gigabyte)
