Hi everybody,
I have been trying to install MDK7.1x on to my older Dell Dimensions XPS
200s MMX('ala 1997).
I have a two drives configured with a Creative CD-ROM and Iomega ZIP
drive. The original OS is Win95.
Original Hard Drive (sorry I do not have the name)
A) 3 Gig. drive connected the first bus (I'm not sure of the brand
name)->has Win95 on 1st partition
Recent Hard drive (Fujitsu)
B) 10 Gig. drive connected to the second bus (Fujitsu - purchased last
year)-has Win98SE on 1st partition
MDK Installation 7.0
MDK7.0 never installed on the 10 Gig. as it went to text mode and
appeared to not recognize the hard drive. All I could see was the large
penguin in the top left corner while slowly scrolling up line by line.
The MDK7.0 installation CD is for Pentium i586 and higher.
MDK Installation 7.1 Helium
So then I tried MDK 7.1. The installation got as far as searching and
configuring IDE and then it froze.
I tried stopping the installation and it finally blacked out to DOS. The
message indicated that some of drivers were older and may have to be
upgraded? Has any one experienced anything remotely similar?
This is a 10 Gig. Fujitsu, and its not that old.
It appears that the configuration may be a bit screwed up after adding
the additional hard drive.
Actually, I had a colleague configure this.
Any ideas?
