The computer is connected to the internet, i enabled all restriceted repos, i did everything the same as my first install and that worked and almost everything just like the second time i installed it for someone. Thanks

the servers seem to be down if i'm not mistaken.

those links can be pasted into your browsers address bar

Not Found

The requested URL /ubuntu/dists/intrepid/partner/i18n/Translation-en_US.bz2 was not found on this server.

edit: i refreshed and some of my sources have failed

I am not quite sure but when i restarted it worked again thank you everyone.

when ever that happens do

sudo apt-get update

in terminal then paste the results
