I was having trouble viewing some powerpoint slides on my computer, so I decided to try and install XP on the partition that I had put aside just for that purpose. Wouldn't you know it, the CD I had was an upgrade CD, not a fresh install one. So I grab an old copy of win98 and try to install that. But to do that, it has to swipe the hard drive clean, partitions and all. Like windows wants to dominate all of your hard drive. So I go ahead with it, figuring I can reinstall Linux later.
After the horror that is installing win98 (how many times can a computer restart before it tells you where to shove it...), I grab the XP disc and get to it. But it is so scratched that my shitty CDROM drive can't read the whole disc, so I decide to make a copy using my dad's PC, which can read the disc perfectly. Now I've no idea how to rip the iso image with windows, so I just copy the files. This time my comp can read the disc, but now the friggin product key doesn't work!
I'm stuck with a stripped version of win98 and still no powerpoint. I swear I hate microsoft.
The joys of computers... Anyway not much more to say now.
