Re: No HD on 6100

[Jim]

Check your RAM.  Two identical pieces? Or one 60ns and another 70ns? 
Mismatched RAM causes *exactly* those symptoms.  Works fine in 8.1, 
kills the installer in 8.5.  Been there done that.

   I just tried to install OS 8.5 on a 6100/60.  After restarting with the
CD ROM, I started initializing the HD.  Half way through, it locked up.
After restarting, there was no HD on the desktop or in DriveSetup.
   I removed the HD and tried another one.  Same thing happened.  What
happened to my HD?  Can you install OS 8.5 on a 6100?
