Help installing Windows XP sp2.?

Alright, I need to reinstall Windows XP sp2 I’ve got a os recovery disk from dell, when I try to install it everything goes fine until a few minutes after the restart. Then It tell me to insert the disk containing “Microsoft UAA Bus Driver for High Definition Audio Installation” I’m pretty sure It should be on the os recovery disk so when I put it back in It tells me to locate the driver “hdaudbus.sys”, but my keyboard and mouse go dead. What should I do, It’s my only computer and now I’m running it on a a linux ubuntu live CD and I need Windows back up. PLEASE HELP ME!!!

CD-Rom’s are not read by my CD Drive?

On my computer, and my brother’s computer, our CD Drives do not read Memorex CD-R’s, which I bought a lot of, so how could I fix this? Is my driver outdated? Can I download an update?

I was going to use this CD, (700 MegaBytes) as a Live CD, or Boot Up CD, for Linux Ubuntu, so it is pretty important I fix this.

Also, I have a USB Keyboard, when I re-boot into safe mode, I cannot use it to choose new settings, how could I fix this? :o

How do I get my wireless card working in Linux Mint 4.0?

I’m planning on switching from Ubuntu 7.04 to Linux Mint 4.0 and I’ve tried out the mint live cd and everything else is running fine. The restricted drivers manager has the atheros driver for my D-Link DWL-G510 rev. B card enabled just like in ubuntu but it says the device isn’t enabled, also in the network manager only the wired connection for my nic card appears. I need to be able to enable my wireless card before I install Mint.

Whats the easiest version of Linux to learn from?

For someone beginning Linux from 15+ years of windows, what would be the best version of Linux to learn? Ubuntu/ Fedora/ Mandriva aren’t options due to driver conflicts with my installed Graphics card.
Though the live cds run from windows and look great, i cant get to the graphics end on boot up. the screen glows bluish black and theres nothing…

Any recommendations?
