What happens is I get this error message after the boot prompt that continuously says:"error: d:0x0 c:64 h:1 s:13" (I don't know if it matters but I can't remember if the letters were capitalized or not) I then tried typing -c at the boot prompt and still got the same thing. I checked the hardware compatability list and I really don't think I have anything that is incompatible. Here is a short list of my hardware: Processor: AMD K5 166 Board/Chipset: Biostar/Intel 440VX Hard Drive: Seagate 1.2 Gig EIDE Drive CD ROM: Mitsumi 8x EIDE (ATAPI? I am unsure of even ATAPI is but I do see it when my CD ROM drivers load from Autoexec.bat) Memory: 4 72 pin 60 ns 8mb EDO simm modules Video: Creative Labs Graphics Blaster 3D Sound Card: Creative Labs AWE 64 Hope someone out there can help me. I am trying to install via FTP. (Dialup PPP through a local Inet provider) Thanks! Stephen Brown sbrown@net1plus.com http://www.net1plus.com/users/sbrown/index.html
