To bad this idea was already many years old and copyrighted.

It's most definitely not copyrighted. Did you mean patented?

Caution when using

I downloaded the livePC engine and installed it, but whenever I go to run it I get a "failed to initialize" error message window then clicking ok closes it out. I hope others have better luck than I did.

Hey Tater --

I'm at moka5, and I have a feeling that this bug falls under my jurisdiction. Have you seen our support forums? If you are having problems, we can continue the discussion there:

My LivePC doesn't recognize my volumetric display. Will that be supported in some future release? ;-)

I looked at the support forums and a similiar entry said to update the video card drivers. Those are up to date. I won't/shouldn't put all the blame on your software as I had to recently reinstall XP the ugly way. It wasn't a full format and install, it was just an install over the old windows directory. So there could be a few things missing on my machine t make it operate properly.
