I've tracked the problem down to the setting of the BIOS "USB Function Enable" setting. When "USB Function Enable" is On the bug persists. When the setting is changed to Off, installation proceeds normally. The only USB devices are a four port hub, and attached to the first port of the USB Hub is a Qtronix trackball. Normally I'd use a USB keyboard, but presently a PS/2 keyboard is in use. USB Legacy Support option is also set in the BIOS. 3.4-RELEASE floppies worked well desipte the USB Function Enable On. The USB function is just from the VIA VP2 chipset in the FIC PA2011 motherboard, and it works well under Win98 with my peripherals. I'll probably test an install under a TMC MI5-VP4 (VIA VP4 chipset) motherboard soon; I'll see if the crash also happens with it. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
