Does the DVD work, and does it have a floppy drive? Maybe smart boot manager is worth a try: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=4185 SBM boots to the floppy and lets you re-choose a boot device from a menu. It does sometimes help on those older bios's. Regards, ..jim -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
