I'm trying to install 5.3 from both floppies and CD1. I'm dualbooting Win XP Pro using PartitionMagic8/BootMagic8 - but I do not think that is related. My other Toshiba laptop is using a similar configuration, and works fine. I saw in Google where at least 1 other person had this problem, but there was no resolution. This is a new laptop, P4-3Ghz, 512MB, 100GB drive, LAN & Wifi, etc. Anyone have success with the newer HP pavillions? thx -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus.
