I did manage to get the Live CD downloaded but the live cd doesn't want to play ball with my PC (worked perfectly on my laptop).
I find that sometimes the live cd works from the usb startup disk and on 
the same computer not from cd, or the other way round... depending on 
the bios I think.
I could not find any explanation for that yet, also the official cd have 
the same variable success. on system where neither of the other two 
options worked.

When working on a computer you have to know enough:
  To fake what you don't know.
  Google what you can't fake.
  How (and when) to 'motivate' the computer to do what Google won't tell.
