    have done wrong?

    |I downloaded the second set of four files on the first link from the

    |"Windows encountered a problem when tring to copy this file. What do

    |"FC3-x86_64-disc1.iso"
    |"Tyoe: ISO File"
    |"Date Modified: 1/28/2005 10:01 AM"
    |"Size: 637 MB"
    |
    |Then my choices are "Retry" and "Cancel"

    |Click Retry just pops the same message up, over and over again.
    Thanks for the help... I'm looking like quite the noob already on
    this site... Hehe

    If you have Partition Magic and a Flash stick here is another alternative:

    1) use PM to shrink your windows partition by 5 GB
    ~ 1a) if this is a dual boot, shrink Windows by enough to hold Linux also
    2) create a new 5GB fat based partition in the newly created space
    3) copy your iso files into the drive created in #2
    4) use something like Daemon Tools
    (http://www.daemon-tools.cc/dtcc/portal/portal.php) to mount cd 1
    5) use windows explorer to navigate to the /images directory on the
    new mounted iso
    6) look for the iso image for disk boot. use rawrite to move this to
    a flash stick.
    7) boot from the iso

    Enjoy
