dows XP, it locks up. What gives? It was Linux
Live, plain and simple. I have demonstrated this a number of times and
it happened every single time. There is no excuse, Linux is doing
something to Windows. Sure whatever it is doing, most users wouldn't
know a thing. I truly believe that. But whatever it is doing it can
make some Windows unbootable.

As far as I am concern, whether Linux Live leaves Windows bootable or
not. That isn't the point. The most important point is that it
shouldn't be doing anything to Windows at all without your permission.
But it does and I caught it with my XP system (and it is reproducible).


...yet no one else seems to have repro'd it or documented it. That
tends to point to an issue on your system, not with Linux Live CD.
As I said, we'll have to agree to disagree.


I will also have to disagree .

The OP's problem was with the Windows installer starting up , then hanging
