Dual-boot XP and mint no dvd and no usb-boot?

Make another partition and use a dule boot loader or use an MBR f key to boot to the other partition during startup there are some tools here you can use to do this in dos 4shared.com/folder/hNpULkAO/_… In order to boot have 2 primary boot partitions on the same drive you need to hide the one your not using by changing the drive partition type in the MBR to an unknown. To boot to it just change it to a type known. Read the PDF in the file above or the docs in the MBR file above to understand how to set the MBR f key at startup.

Firstly try cleaning the CD/DVD reader lens. A cleaning disc is not dear and will be useful on your household DVD as well. If that fails could you borrow an external USB CD/DVD drive and use that.

Other than that I have no more alternatives. Good luck.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
