you dont need a windows cd for thosejeremy said:alternativly you can use knoppix or kanotix (linux live cds)

knoppix have builitin kernel enabled ntfs support but its experimental cant say how well it will work , and kanotix doesnt have the kernel ntfs write support enabled but it comes with captive (a realiable ntfs write driver,but personally i didnt had much luck with it) , overall both distros are pretty easy to use and have a nice looking desktop [/B]
