Trying to boot Knoppix on my other windows box. It seems to only load like 1 out of every 10 times I boot it. If it doesn't load it gets stuck at Detecting USB.... and goes nowhere. If it does load it doesn't stall at that part at all and loads right up.

I've tried many different startup options, nothing seems to get it loading every time. PC is Asus mb/ Nforce2 with AMD XP 2100 CPU, 512MB Corsair memory.

Also, since I don't have a linux partition installed on the computer, would it be possible to save Knoppix settings to a 256mb flash stick once I get it working?

have you tried another cd to see if your media is corrupt?/ also troubleshoot your cd player to see if that is going out.
