    Need to know what i have done wrong

    Ok i have downloaded the 685mb ISO file and burned it to a cd as an image (not bootable) and i stuck it in my computer and it booted up regularly as XP. I remember hearing something about mp5 files and checking currupted data both of which i never did. Can anyone tell me what those things were and how to check for them and anything else taht i may have done wrong"

    Lots of other things can have gone wrong, my bet is that you got several of them. We just spent 3 pages of post trying to talk you through this in the booting forum, and you come here and start a new thread expecting people to tell you the same things???

    That's hardly an accurate statement. You wrote above that you "remember hearing something about mp5 files and checking currupted data both of which i never did." Actually I went into great detail telling you the importance of checking the md5 file, telling you what tool you could use to do so and so on. Your last post in the other thread up to this point reads in part: "i didnt check to see if anything was currupted bc i was fed up and i have a lot of CD-R's" Now you're coming here and starting all of this again? And you're saying that you have done what you were instructed to do?

    Do you think there is more information that someone is holding out on you but someone will type if you ask often enough? Are you just playing games to see how much of people's time you can waste? Is there some reason you didn't contine this post in the thread and forum where you started it?

    Whatever your reasons, as a booting problem this issue belongs in the booting forum. We're not going to fight about it here. This thread is now closed.
