Well, the same box with the same config is currently finalizing the install
of XP (from orig media) so I can't say it's the hardware. I used Nero to
burn the CDs. I have to get more blanks, but I'd be open to suggestions as
to what else to burn it with - my other linux machine doesn't have a cd
burner, so at the moment, only my work laptop (sadly forced to run M$ there)
has that capability... The discs are 700MB, the iso is 694MB...
