Hi

I am running an Athlon XP 1800 on a GA-7DXR motherboard i have 4 hard drives the boot drive being a IBM deskstar 40 gig drive.512 megs of ram.
I downloaded the FreeBSD 4.4 iso bootable cd when i try run it, its spits out a lot of Hex about 6 lines then says GTX halted.
I thought it was a bum cd so i tried in my other pc and it works perfectly.
any ideas?

Thanx
Peter
