Had to install it twice though but still havin prob . . Found out repair works well in installin . . Just have to keep in mind that when repair foot go for it the first time it asks 4 rep with Recov Consol cos it takes to Dos makin it hard . . When next rep asks go for it . . . Now i hav prob with install daemon tools and alcohol . . Error comes sayin Need to restart after previous install . . Plus i think there prob with Sp3 and autopatch . . Prob with Window Installer

I m really impressed with ubuntu live cd . . Backin up data from ntfs and removin virus files . . I want to try make xp live cd . . Read its possibl with bartpe . .
