NTFS Hibernated Partition problem Sept 8, 2017 11:00:24 GMT

Hi,

I have been trying to update my copy of Puppy Slacko to the latest version 6.3.0. Right click on saved ISO file in Win 10 File Explorer brings up the option to burn image, which I have done (several times). But when I try to start Puppy from Live CD I get the message "error, NTFS hibernated partition ....cannot mount". After a pause of a few seconds, it continues and then the monitor breaks up is multicoloured rubbish and it freezes. The only way to get out of this position is to re-start. Basically, I cannot download and install any Linux OS, so I would be grateful for any suggestions. By the way, existing Linux OS work well.
Many thanks,
Alex

I have managed to install Puppy Slacko 6-3-2 by ignoring the error message. The boot up continues after the message and everything is OK. Alex

Assuming it still exists that is. It may just be an NTFS partition/drive that used to have Windows on
