sorry to hear about your trouble. I'm not using Win32DiskManager so I can't say what else could be the issue....
things to check => maybe you did this already? - checksum on the download? - is Win32diskmanager ok? can you use linux and the dd command ? - is the SD card good/formated properly before copying the image - good connection around sd card/holder ... it should work ! crazy !!
