Hello-All,
   Thanks Ralph for your points and suggestions.  I did get linux Mint 
11 installed in VB and running GREAT!!  Installing guest additions was 
different than in ubuntu 10.10 but, I did it..
   Now I have two distros to play with!  Life is Good..

   I believe Allen suggested a live CD and or gparted.  I really DON"T 
feel comfortable messing with my laptop HD!!  Especially, since I don't 
know what I'm doing!!  I think my HD is messed up more than I suspect.  
in dskmgmt. I see multiple swamp and an extra XP partition???  I have no 
idea how that occurred?  I did install one distro - thinking it would 
over lay or delete a partition, instead it created more??  See my 
hesitation in proceeding, without a knowledgeable person on hand...
   As you mentioned, Ralph, If someone wants to help me, I'd be glad to 
come anywhere.  Just tell me what to bring.  I live in the area of shilo 
and LBJ.  2620 ruidosa ave. 75228.
   Thanks for your help.
   John
