It is being installed on a Compaq DeskPro 133 with 32 Megs of RAM. The computer boots from the CD fine and goes through the entire installation with not one flaw. It even gets to the "Last Chance Screen". After that it says: "All File System Information Written Successfully" It then flashes a a quick message about "Emergency Halographic Shell". It then says: "Panic Page Fault Syncining Disks 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 Giving Up on Two Buffers UpTime 4m26s Automatic Reboot Please if anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated. The CD-Rom is from Hi-Val (don't laugh). It is made by VinTech, model VIN 40-A. It is a 40 speed ATAPI CD Rom. After I E-mailed this probelm it was suggested that I might have bad RAM, so I swapped RAM till I was blue in the face and I get this message now: "All File System Information Written Successfully" It then flashes a a quick message about "Emergency Halographic Shell". It then says: "Panic Page Fault Syncining Disks panic lock mgr: non-zero exclusive cont. automatic reboot. Once again thanks for any help.
