Can someone help me delete a file from Window XP?

I downloaded the Ubuntu Linux Live CD ISO. The file size is almost 700MB. It was saved in my desktop. So I rightclicked on it, and clicked delete. Then went to the Recycle bin, right clicked on the ISO of Ubuntu (700MB) and clicked delete. But did this REALLY delete it from my computer? Because I don’t want to use up the Diskspace of 700. If not, what other way can you delete this file? Thanks.

Change File System without erasing data?

I used to have at bootup the error like reboot and select proper boot device or insert media in boot device. Then I flagged the HD with Gnome (linux partition software live cd) as boot and I had the message NTLDR missing. I booted with the Recovery Console and entered FIXBOOT. It said MBS corrupted. Filesystem FAT!! I had NTFS. Now in gnome it says fat16 and “Unable to read the content of this filesystem”. It can’t tell me how much I used and everything. What can I do to keep my data? I don’t care about windows booting up. I also have knoppix as a live cd to retrieve it but it mounts with weird symbols as filenames and no folders or anything right. PLZ HELP!

How can I prepare a Linux live CD?

I have Knoppix ISO (690MB) on a CD. This is the only file on the CD. But it doesn’t boot PC. Do I need to have any extractor on the CD or extract the ISO files on CD or hard disk? Boot order of PC is O.K. If there is any other better ISO, preferably a smaller one in size, please inform that too as I have never used Linux. Does the PC setup require any changes to run Linux as currently I am using XP?
