Re: yay for linux! (newbie help)
okay, well, i'm back, i burned the iso of xubuntu onto a cd using cdburner pro xp3 to burn it as an iso image, then i put it into my other computer, shut it off and turned it back on so it would start when i started the computer, well, apparently something happened, i just don't know what, a bunch of things came up on a black screen (dos) and i kept seeing the word "caldera" in it, and then it just came down to an A: prompt and i had no idea what to do and it didn't tell me what to do either, so yeah, that's why i'm stuck
oh, and the whole reason i'm destroying windows on that computer is because it just basically sucks, i can't get the drivers for my monitor to work b/c it's stupid, and basically nothing works, it won't recognize a flash drive and even though it'll connect to the internet, i can't use microsoft update or something like that b/c i can't register b/c it searches for a modem and tells me i don't have one even though i have a USB/Ethernet adapter and i can use the internet which is useless anyways because the monitor doesn't work right b/c i can't get.....blah blah blah!!! i hate windows!!! haha
ignore that last paragraph, i was just demonstrating why i hate windows and i want linux ^.^ lol, i don't want fixes for my problems with windows, i just want linux, haha, so yeah, i've decided on Xubuntu b/c it's supposedly the "lighter" of the three ubuntus, and i figure my computer could handle it the easiest, but i'm stuck on that A: prompt, so, yeah, thanks for the help again! ^.^
