Here\'s an update on my installation: I sat in the ethernet nic and everything work fine. But then after booting over floppies and started downloading from an ftp, my machine started to act strangely. First, after downloading the binary files i started downloading the doc files. Then the download fell to 1,1 kb/s so i restarted it. Then after downloading approximatly 2,39 mb it just stopped downloading (and that\'s with every package I was downloading). So i canceled all downloads and restarted the application, but now it couldn\'t even find the hdd... I don\'t know what I did wrong, but I flashed my bios, and still, not even bios finds the hdd... I\'ve checked if there where any unplugged cables but there weren\'t (maybe I didn\'t check properly). The only thing bios finds is my cd and the flopy... What could I have done, and can anyone help... do I need to buy a new hdd now, or what? thehidden
