using unetbootin you can install any linux onto your hard disk.but for some distros to work c drive must be FAT. Try puppy linux it might work.

I just got a new computer, ubuntu works fine on it, THIS TOPIC IS NOW SOLVED!

Here is my stupid idea, if you have two built in hard disks, you can format a partition on it as fat16 and use unetbootin to make it bootable to install. Just uncheck the show only usb devices box in unetbootin. This is how I upgrade my ancient beast with no contact to the outside world but web.

Thanks bendib, if I hadn't gotten this new computer that would probably be the easiest way, but I didn't have a 2nd hdd, anyways this topic is already solved
