If it helps ( i have no any clue what I should report:) ) I have DELL
notebook INspiron 6400 with ATI X1300 GPU.

ONe of the reasons I got of the WIndows is that I got bored from Xp itself
and from to many viruses, antiviruses and so on... that means I will gladly
"report" send you print screen what I have found...

I have downloaded INtrepid and burned it on cd and tried to upgrade from cd
and it didnt worked, reinstall comes out of question untill I really have
to.

Thing where I could probably help is language, I work as a translator for
german and I am from Bosnia, that means if there are some thing that should
be translated to bosnian from english or from german I can probably help as
I saw that bosnian translation lacks on ... wuite a lot. I just didnt know
who to ask for...

Thanks for help.
