I'm somewhat skeptical re: the advice because the CD Rom has booted & =20= read the information contained on the CD up to the point of the hang =20 (i.e. "time counters tick every 10.000 msecs). I don't perceive the =20 failure to lie with the CD Rom but rather somewhere in the BIOS because =20= the next step in the loading process has been reported to me as looking =20= to the BIOS. Hence I reset the BIOS to defaults. I did however burn =20= a new CD in the chance that for some reason the CD had become =20 corrupted. That yielded the same result. So, my question still stands (unfortunately). Why is the install =20 hanging at "time counters tick every 10.000 msecs"|?
