sorry, but this reminds me of talking after seeing the dentist and having a numb face. At first I thought you were joking and I was thinking this is brilliant !, then reading on, the reality set in. I've been collecting about half doz ver of linux to try. I don't think I'll tackle it yet. think maybe I'll redouble my efforts on vista 64 instead. "what a copmlete wast of tinm"-I feel your pain
maybe this will help

IMO, when anyone is trying to learn Linux 'Do Not Try To Dual Boot With Windows'. Many people do and I did myself. Works great for a while if you get it to work, but eventually (if you are a Linux noob) you will loose your Windows install. People like viper can probably do this with his eyes closed, but he knows Linux.

thing is, i ran several distros last year, on just about the same hardware, with only minor (user caused, i'm sure) irritations. the addition of the new audio card (and using a partition this time, rather than clearing the raid, and going linux only) might have contributed to my mess.

For a Linux noob, I have had luck in dual-booting with Windows. Thanks God !
