Completely formatting 2 win2k hd's & and want to boot Ubuntu... help.
I'm definitely a noob in this. I've never messed around with linux, but consider myself to be a reasonably experienced windows user. Anyway, the short long of it is this: I caught a nasty bug and can't get rid of it. I think it's a worm of some kind, conficker maybe, but none of the removal tools are working, also, win auto update is blocked, avg8.5 can't find it, adaware-ae refuses to run unless in safe mode. I no longer have my win2k (old as sin I know, I just liked it's stability) boot disk... none of my friends can find their copies of xp, so I'm stuck. A friend of a friend told me about Ubuntu and I want to make it happen. Naturally, since I can't get rid of the virus, I have to format both of my drives and start from scratch with the Ubuntu boot cd. HELP PLEASE!
