| Linspire 5.0 won't install |

11/13/05 |
i have an emachines T2040 with a 120 GB hdrive, 512MB of RAM, a dvd r/w and a cd r/w drives. i'm running XP Home on the whole 120GB hdrive. I tried to install Linspire and it went thru the install procedure but all of a sudden it stopped and showed a 3 step picture of how to eject the cd. i did that and the pc rebooted into XP. I rebooted the pc again with the Linspire cd in it, and it did the same thing as before. a friend said it installed fine on his pc, which also has XP Home on it, and during install it let him set the hdrive to partitions with XP still being the C: drive and it being the D: drive. Since I can't get to the installation part where it lets you partition the hard drive to install it, I installed Partition Magic 8.0 and Boot Magic so I have the hdrive all set up to have Linspire installed.
Why is it stopping and telling me to eject it?
Thanks, Jim
