64mb AGP 4x graphics card
dlink dwl 520+ network card

5: must not be a LIVE cd!!!. I hate them.

6: id like to be able to easily install. so i dont want to have to enter konsole or anything.

7: first time using linux/ i hate it so far. cuz i cant figure out how to use it.

Hi StickDude101,

You seem to be posting an awful lot of the same issue/s! VectorLinux 6.0 Standard - see my other responses. Can't answer the last point as I don't use file sharing with other Linux machines on the network.

Best regards,
chameleon437
