It seems to stop the PC booting when attached to the system, even though the BIOS auto detects the card fine. I've booted the card OK in other systems so I was wondering if there are any settings that maybe I should try in order to make it work. For example: should I set the device to LBA, LARGE or NORMAL access? Should I configure it to a particular PIO mode? My whole firewall concept is going out the window here if I can't get this to work. I have an old LS-120 superdrive that the PC will boot from from floppy fine when the flash isn't connected but that limits me to PicoBSD as I don't have anything else to write an LS-120 disc. Any insights would be appreciated. _____________________________________________________ Get your name as your email and web site address. http://www.NetIdentity.com. Be somebody online.
