Hi Peter, What's happening probably is that the card is way too slow for your setup and that doesn't allow it to boot. Try to disable UDMA from the channel/drive the CF reader is assigned and reboot with the card inside... Another problem could be a very long cable or the CF adapter attached to a ATA 66+ (80 wire) cable... Phoebus
