I must have burned five Ubuntu Live CDs, and one Fedora 10 CD, and only two work. However, only one of the two (Ubuntu 8.10) will make it past the "How does you want me to boot it?" screen. the other on gets stuck there and says:
I/O Error. Reboot.

The one that will make it past that screen (Ubuntu 7.10) loads all the way up to the desktop and can run stuff. I tried the installer, and the one time I got it far enough to start it made it to 63% and then said some error, and quit the installer, leaving half of an OS on my disk. The second time I did, it froze somewhere around 15% [Detecting File System].

So, I'm trying the re-install again on the 7.10 CD right now (I'm on another computer). I will update here on my status.

But, the main problem here is that the other four Ubuntu CDs wont load on the computer (I just get a message from BIOS stating that there is no operating system). None of them are scratched, and the files should be fine. Whilst I was downloading the ISO, Opera crashed and stoped the transfer. But, I think the files were okay, because when I downloaded the Fedora ISO, it was uninterrupted, and the CD didn't work.

I'm running a 2003 Sony VAIO laptop. Oh, and I don't get the internet from my card on Linux. My card is a:

Linksys Wireless-G
Notebook Adapter
Model No.: WPC54G

So as a summary:
1. Why won't my CDs work?
2. Are there drivers for this kind of card?
