To me it looks like it is trying to boot but fails and then just goes back to the F1.. prompt question. I have tried this both with a IDE drive and a SCSI drive. Same result. Also the only way to get this boot manager off is to use DOS's 'fdisk /mbr' If anyone know what to do please let me know.. Christian
