Yeah, i've been frustrated. i've got one computer (the PC) that for some reason i can't get linux to load on, and my laptop is DOA for an unknown reason (has something to do with an accidental drop a while back, but it worked afterwards). I've been extremely frustrated with both all day, as i've been tearing apart the laptop and re- assembling it and jumping back to the PC to try to see what i can do linux wise with it. it's been real difficult, and i'm getting so ticked off because the instructions sound SO simple but it's just completely eluding me. kinda like one of those moments when you're walking through your house in the dark in the middle of the night looking for the bathroom and you're half awake and you can't seem to find the light switch...i think we've all been there. ok, well, i'm calm now and ready to try at this again if anyone is willing to help me at this point......

It's a phillips, that's about all i know. i can't find a listing of the model number. i'm prolly going to have to open up the computer to get that part. can't find anything in windows itself to tell me what the model number of the cd drive is. i'll get to that and get back to you with that info...... > 5 - what cd burner prog are you using? NTI CD Maker 2000 Plus.....OEM version for my CD drive > 6 - are you using any type of firewall with ms? no firewalls > 7 - who told you what His last name is? ;) > I plead the 5th. :)
