Daniel, There's probably more knowledgeable ppl in here, but i'll give it a shot. Have you tried downloading the latest drivers(more importantly the XP drivers) for your soundcard? Or just forcing XP to use a generic driver? ie on install of the hardware select location to install from then choose driver. With regards to your floppy drive, is it disabled in bios? You may have accidentally changed this whilst in bios. Re booting off the cd, should work fine if you change bios to boot from the cd first...but it sounds like you've already done this. Chk carefully that you haven't disabled any ide ports etc in bios, it will be something minor like that.

The tech guy would sold the vibra 128 to me said it would work (and it did for a few weeks) now reckons I need to upgrade to a LIVE. I tried my mates LIVE today and the same problem. I checked my stereo and its fine. I thought yep no worries, I'll reformat it. But now XP doesn't recognise that I have an "A" drive. Whats more no matter what BIOS settings I have, it won't boot of it on start-up. Please help. I really need my putey working and have no idea of what to do!
