Sorry to hear that, beaten by the machine

But sometimes it is the wise thing to do, frustration might get you...

I'm gonna try one thing, I bought an adaptor so that I can connect my 2.5 inch hd in a desktop computer and then install it via that way. Personally, I find that way not so good.

Hard to really give up, eh?

Good luck!

Ok, I used my day-off to try installing dsl on my old laptop.
Working with that adaptor was very easy but then when I inserted the hd back in the laptop it wouldn't start.

It gave me an error:

Grub Read Error

On the desktop computer it gave me that error to after the restart.
The only hd that was connected was the laptop hd.

So that's the story.
