Did you mean "I can't"? If that's the case, I would be suspicious that Solidworks is doing something funny, in which case a re-install (or the "repair" utility) might fix it.

However, it is conceivable that the .igs/.stp files you're opening are genuinely corrupt. If that's the case, you need to get non-corrupt versions of those files.

EDIT: One other thing, which version of Solidworks are you using? If you're using SW08 and the site's giving you SW10 files, then it is unlikely that you would be able to open them.
