ok, well, i havn't actually done the install yet. but i did do a fresh download of all 3 CDs last night. i re-burned CD one by telling it to create a CD from an ISO image. then went to install again and it actually went into the install! but i restarted the computer once i realized that it was going to work. why? because i wanted to re- burn CD 2 and 3 so i can get everything installed at once instead of having to go back in and do it later. so once i'm done burning cd2 and 3, i'll be doing a full install (as long as the downloaded files are good). so about an hour before i go back into the install process. it's 1pm EST, so if there's anything i need to know before doing the install, i guess i've got about an hour to know.
i do want to say thank you to everyone that has given me help and suggestions since i first posted yesterday and for putting up with my ranting and frustration. thanks again!
