Hi sabaressh,

Try to boot from LiveCD first. You don't have to install it on your notebook, you just try it to boot from LiveCD. About the rumor that Ubuntu can harm your notebook's harddisk, hmmm... I don't think so. I'm using Ubuntu for 4 years.

Try it, then give it a comment when you using it. Cheers...

Yes umair. I'm using ubuntu. But, I'm never had a problem like that. And usually LiveCD from Canonical doesn't require a password to use it. Perhaps your LiveCD is broken or have scratch on it. Try to use another one or you can download an alternate.
