So, feeling in the mood for some Medieval fighting, I began the download for both items concurrently, along with an update to Left4Dead 2.

After deleting both games from my hard drive, I proceeded to download Garry's Mod to test if it was the games or something wrong with my hard drive. Garry's Mod had no trouble installing, launching, and running. I exited GMod, and downloaded Chivalry (with no other downloads occurring). Same issue, again: http://imgur.com/iLjoFtLHere's where it gets even stranger.
