    What is "it"?
    What did you click on?

    Remember, I'm not there.
    I can't see what you see.

    I clicked the link for getxpud and hit run then i got the error message. I then tried to save getxpud to my desktop and run it which still didn't work.

    No. My instructions say to download that file not to click on any "Run".

    This is very sensitive step (I posted a warning!) so please re-read my instructions couple of times.

    That is just the file that I saved from the link. It's an application. I don't see any other folder.

    I can't comment since I have no idea what you're doing.

    I just put the DVD-r in and used the cd burning program on default settings. I then placed it in other computer and booted from it. I get a screen that says xPUD a better desktop select a language I pick english then a black screen loads and that is the last bit of it.

    When I boot from that cd it just opens a page saying select a language if I don't do anything there are no other options. When I select a language it goes to a black screen and I get a long error message. I posted the end of the message above and then it allows me to type in commands like it's a cmd prompt.
