I have downloaded and burned the kaspersky rescue cd (from my licensed version of Kaspersky Internet Security 2010).  It runs fine on my Windows 7 laptop but it stalls on my desktop.

The desktop is running Windows XP Pro (installed from own disks, not OEM, no hidden partitions)

The cd boots.  It starts to configure then stalls part way through the command line and will not load the GUI

it could be that the Kaspersky CD does not have the IDE modules integrated, and just has SATA drivers...

to remedy this, you would either have to:

1. get a SATA DVD(CD) Burner(ROM) and attach to an open SATA port...

or

2. place the ISO on a bootable USB stick, and boot from USB...

or

3. try one of the following AV scanners instead:
