So I was downloading Windows 8 Consumers Preview from Microsoft's site, but it stopped at around 1.6gb.
I decided I'll rather download a torrent.

I didn't delete the incomplete .iso and when I started with the torrent, it showed that it already downloaded 1.6gb!?

I presume bittorrent is continuing with that download, but will this actually work?

It will. Just make sure that you tell it to force recheck the file. Right click on it and go "Force Recheck"
