Re: replacing windows with linux but not loosing files
All that happened was his Windows trial ran out, nothing is wrong with hardware . But yes, if he would have backed up files beforehand he wouldn't have do use a LiveCD to back everything up. Not like it matters much though, he should be able to access his files regardless.
