I redownloaded the file and checked the md5 as soon as it got done downloading.. and it matched the one that was posted near the download. I installed nlite.. and put in my winxp pro sp3 32bit cd.. opened up nlite and chose the cd in th ebrowse spot and it copied the files from the cd into a new folder on my computer. it changed to the new folder and i pressed next. there were no sessions available.. and I clicked next again. clicked on integrate -> hotfixes, addons and update packs clicked on create -> bootable iso then chose next clicked on 'insert' and chose the .7z file that I previously downloaded and md5 checked. it showed the details and then i highlighted it and clicked next.. asked me if i wanted to start the process and i chose yes.. and it ran through that adding the 7z file.. finished without an error and then moved on to the iso part.. I chose to make an iso file.. and then burned that file with imgburn. ............. put it in my other pc and booted it up.. it started loading windows files and then i got the bluescreen of death. (I restarted 5 times just to make sure it wasn't some random error.. but got it everytime).. then I tried inserting the original cd to see if I got an error with that.. but it loaded the windows files fine and got to the part where I start to setup windows. the bsod says: a problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer. if this is the first time blah blah blah check for viruses on your computer. blah blah blah technical information: *** STOP: 0x0000007B (0xF78D2524,0xC0000034,0x00000000,0x00000000)
