Jman888.
I'm posting here for the first time; really I just came here as art of my continuing pursuit of getting a Linux os onto my PC, but I too expect to be looking for a lot of help as a new user--hence, I feel I can at least post what has helped me so far (I installed Linspire yesterday)...rather than let your ? go completely unanswered
Again I should stress that with Linux/Linspire I am prettymuch the TOTAL newbie
file system: I formated the new, second hard drive which also was installed just yesterday, to FAT 32.--because I read somewhere NTFS is harder to use here.
"Worked for me" is all I can really say about my choice of FAT32 here.
your "burned" CD, of Linspire presumably: an official issue of a Linspire CD--while about $50 from Linspire company itself, is only (not boxed-set version) $19.99 + shipping, from Tigerdirect.com
Would seem to ideally enhance your chances, wouldn't it, to go with the official CD...you probably know what I am going to say now, but-- CD downloads or copies of OS s I understand sometimes lack some files to make them readily install or work properly
Good luck in any case
