subject: Laptop won`t install

Recently we bought a laptop - and of course it came with XP preloaded.

I played around to learn a bit, then tried to install eCS. It pretty 
much installed - except I'd not checked on a few bits of info - such as 
network card, etc. I didn't do a full install - just wanted to see if it 
would work - which it looked like it would.

I bought DFSee, repartitioned, then used the CD's that came with the 
system to reinstall WinXP into the first partition (excluding the hidden 
recovery partition).

I'm now trying to install eCS - it lets me choose installation options, 
displays the eComStation 1.2 window - then nada. The CD-ROM light 
actually shows brief activity twice - but nothing else will happen. It 
worked before I played around with partitioning - but not now. I'm very 
confused. Any ideas?

Thanks
