Thanks ICit2lol! I'm downloading it right now and will update you to my findings.
Bit of a problem the file is 733mb where my CD which im trying to burn it on is only a 700mb disk.
Is it possible to download a smaller version of this?
Would using; http://www.pendrivelinux.com/univers...easy-as-1-2-3/ to create it on a USB stick work? I'm not sure if i can even boot from a USB since I've had recent issues doing.
It's installed but there is no try;
Install Ubuntu
Check disc for defects
test memory
boot from first hard disk
rescue a broken system
Those are my only options.
Suggestions?
I'll pick up blank DVDs tomorrow and give it a shot. I'll re-post when I find something out or unless there are any other suggestions.
I really do appreciate you staying on top of this. Thanks a lot. Let's hope it works, will go to the store when they open. It's 3AM here Nothing is open right now lol.

Hi Steve,
I'm know you're on a path with ICIT2lol - please follow one path at a time, don't let my post distract you.
It's difficult to follow two sets of instructions and provide good feedback - things get a bit screwy - so stick with ICIT2lol and the Ubuntu path. Come back to Kaspersky if you reach a dead end or if there is a consensus to take a different tact due to the risk of cross contamination (drive installed or ext. USB'd to another machine)
I'd like to see what you see with Kaspersky Rescue disk, a camera shot would be fine. I'd like to see the same or similar screens that Username provided to you as examples in post 12
Reference: Kaspersky Rescue Disk manual (PDF)
[edit] In the Kaspersky manual (near the end) there's a note about not seeing C: and suggests that it might be due to raid.
I suggested to Username that a "repair disc" boot using the repair option might help.
I came across a few utilities that will provide more information about the issue.
Both can be placed on a flash drive and you should be able to run them in a Recovery boot. Please post the output from both utilities when you get the chance to run them.

Hi Slartybart, thank you for your advice. Here are the latest Kasper and Ubuntu images for all to see.
I am in the process of burning the latest ver of Ubuntu onto DVD and trying it that way.
Then will move on to Farbar Listparts and Old Timer-Listit. Will post images of all 3 results.
Thanks all
