I have changed old IDE cable with new one.It was a cable that remained to me from "40 GB HDD size limited old BIOS" days :) Sorry i dont know what its name :) With new cable all errors just disappeared.Still it was saying "your disc geometry is wrong" while fdisking but everything is allright and installation completed. And one more thing, first booting after installation (and second and later) may be it says like "First Boot Sector is Wrong.Press Y to fix or anykey to cancel".If it is, go to BIOS and disable Virus Warning. Thats all. Thanks a lot... ------=_Part_64125_10997740.1186211015165 Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline I tried another thing and it al fixed up.<br>I have changed old IDE cable with new one.It was a cable that remained to me from "40 GB HDD size limited old BIOS" days :) Sorry i dont know what its name :)<br>With new cable all errors just disappeared.Still it was saying "your disc geometry is wrong" while fdisking but everything is allright and installation completed.<br>And one more thing, first booting after installation (and second and later) may be it says like "First Boot Sector is Wrong.Press Y to fix or anykey to cancel".If it is, go to BIOS and disable Virus Warning.<br>Thats all.<br>Thanks a lot...<br> ------=_Part_64125_10997740.1186211015165--
