Thanks for the reply!!

I have had a little read of the Documentation link, am not really sure what the "particularly in checking the md5 sum" is I thought you would just got into nero and burn a image from the iso file I downloaded?

My boradband connection is BT line, goes into a modem and then into my pc by usb.. I am unsure as to what "PPPoE software" is? firewall like zone alarm?

I am going to back up my machine before trying to use it, if i am not ment to write to an NTFS partition. what do i do when i want to install somthing? where do you intall it too.. and would it still be there after u run xp and then the CD again say the next day or somthing?

Really the only thing i will be doing is running it to test weather a webpage looks ok, So the only things i need it to have it running safely and to be able to connect to the net.

Thanks again
