    Re: Kubuntu cd not recognized in Vista

    ok ok.. so you have configured your BIOS to boot from a CD as its first option correct.. if not then all you do is reboot your PC press F2 or whatever key that will get you into settings it should say something like "boot device" or something like that than your enable booting from an CD and add that as your first option.. than you insert the Kubuntu live CD and it should have a menu which the first option should say "start or install Kubuntu"... if that doesnt work than you might have a faulty CD rom drive

      The bios is set to boot from the cd first, then flppy, hard drive and last network.... It does not boot from the cd though!!! I have downloaded several copies, about furr or so from www.kubuntu.com and bruned them. And none of them has worked so far.... I am using internet download manager, which is divding files into several fiels.... could that be the problem with the iso??

      Sprry abou the spellign misstakes... I just got back from karrement and jimmy'z!!! It has been a long night!

        Yes. If you cannot boot from the CD made from your download process, then the download is corrupted.

          Yes, you have to download the iso "all in one" as one file, otherwise it most likely will be corrupted.

          Also while googling for those links I gave you I noticed a few issues with your LT and overheating and cd drive usage. You may want to have a look in google. Plus your cd reader lens may be dirty so you may want to get a cleaning cd.
