Thats strange since you boot to the cd before anything else happens. It's decided just after post when no OS is running.

I just want to understand. Are you trying to boot to the cd, or run gparted in windows? Because gparted can only be run from the cd, and you must boot to cd.

Gparted is made to boot off of, if you cannot boot to it, maybe the burn went sour.

ahh, maybe try a different version of the pluggin.

I'll do a 2k install and find out myself gimmie a bit I'm partitioning for it now.

Have you cleaned the cache lately?

He's using a different build I'm sure , since he's os is 2k coknuck

I would be almost certain there are some compatibility issues, with an old browser, and the newer scripts.

May I suggest upgrading to IE 7 http://www.microsoft.com/windows/downloads/ie/getitnow.mspx Nevermind , I forgot 2k doesn't support 7

well now it's caught in a loop for me, stuck @ the 12280 file, Thats using the smart test

You have to look at it this way, there are always times when a forum moves and evolves, many of the members are experiencing a bit of stress from the turns in the world economics in turn ,, maybe we are just letting off steam. Swearing is a part of life, to some it is offensive, to others it may be an expression and taken lightly as it should be. Ever notice when you are w/ a person and not much to say, so the weather comes up? It's called finding common ground. Do your part , post tech news for one, search the net, it's a big place, help the forum have discussions on those type of topics, not saying your not, nor anyone else reading this, but hell, it's all in fun, and I have seen nothing truly gross, or generally offensive to an mature society. Yea, there has been a few borderline things come up, but the percentage is very slim.

have you tried the AC97 driver yet?

if you can find it, I couldn't

It's a firmware for wireless he is using. I searched for an hour the other day, the only thing i found was a dead link to an uploaded attachment. Seems to be hiding very well for some reason or another.

eeek. If you have your system up , along w/ antivirus and all that, put it in the drive, and scan it for bad shit, see what ya get. lemmie know.

What the hell did you do? Then again, I suppose if you knew, it would not have happened. BTW, be very careful using that boot and nuke, there are some bad things on some of those . I hope it wasn't " dereks " boot and nuke

You said you had a 300 gig hdd, s you will have to resize the windows partition. Use <a href=http://gparted.sourceforge.net/">Gparted</a>, a live partitioning tool to do this.

Depends on the distro you want to install, but in general, at the beginning of the Linux installation, they will ask how you would like to install. Choose use largest free space. Use grub for the boot loader, and you'll be fine. Many live cd versions have a partitioning tool on them. Make sure you have your data backed up if you are not familiar.

Thats what this thread, is all about , so go gettem

I haven't tried parallels, is it worth it?

Welcome to testmy.net SimonTek, sounds as if you'll have quite a bit to offer, as well as gain from this site.

Granted i don't play WoW, but application hang? I'm running leopard and i personally have not experienced the " hang " you speak of. I also have a iBook G4 that is running the beta 8.04 Herron PPC version, runs flawlessly as you say.

Well phase II , looks like this is your initiation. Enjoy and welcome again

Were gonna have to watch you then :haha: Just kidding man :haha:
