Can't Boot

[Harry Kuhman]

..... I was wondering if my problem had to do with my hard drive being SATA. what do you think?

Don't need a hard disk at all to run Knoppix, so I doubt that is the problem.

...The CD works on every other computer i tried it on......

I have no idea if this is your problem or not, but I frequently hear that from people who burnt at high speed, only to find the disk works later when they do a low speed burn or use a CDRW.
