RE: RE: Installing 5.1 problems
That message means one of two things, one, it's trying to read your cd disk and it's bad, or two, it's booting off you hard disk and the hard disk does not have mbr record. Tell me about the history of the hard disk. Does the DH have a operating system on it? Can you boot the operating system on the HD? Did you run ms/dos fdisk on it to wipe out the old system and not do format with build boot record? What happens when you tell the bio's to boot from HD? Have you put some other bootable cdrom in cd drive and be able to boot from it. Like try to install ms/windows from the cd drive. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Nigel Taylor Sent: Sunday, December 21, 2003 9:45 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: RE: Installing 5.1 problems Thanks fsb_user, but that did not work still got to the same part in the boot process.

RE: Re: RE: Installing 5.1 problems
Wait a minute, you originally said you could not get the install cd disk to boot to do the install, now you say you got conflicts on the raid card during the install.
