Well I rebuilt the desktop once again but this made no diff. I also started up from one of my internal scsi disks and the alert remains.
One time when the "This Disk is unreadable by this computer. Do you want to initialize the Disk? Dos 720" showed up, I went as far as to tell it to initialize, but then when the second message came up "Are you sure you want to initialize this disk, it will erase all your data" (or similar) well then I chickened out. Booted from the cd and there was no alert. Not sure what this means however? Again, the alert also doesn't go away with the Atapi Zip disconnected. I'm wondering however if there might be something wrong with my VST ATA/66 card. I'm going to have to try booting without this or any of the ide stuff plugged in. Whether this has anything to do with my s900 not booting at cold start is another tidbit of wonder. I still have to restart to get things going. JJ, just caught your post as I was about to mail this. Unfortunately I don't have the original processor to this as it came with a G3. And yeah, unplugging the VST is one of the next steps I'll be trying. So I'm still at a loss.
