Hello all. Sorry to post a question with almost no information, but the machine is crashing before it produces any helpful output. Here's what happens: I boot off of the boot floppy, (It crashes whether or not I disable probing of devices which are not installed...) and make it to the menu. If I choose to procede with the installation, the hard drive light comes on, and never goes back out. At this point, the machine will let me switch screens with alt-F1/2, but there is no information to be found on the F2 screen. The machine succesfully ran 2.0R, and ann SNAPs until the beginning of the year, when I stopped keeping it current. The machine: 486DX4/100 Adaptec SCSI chip on a SIDE (?) vesa local bus i/o card <=(this beastie must Genoa Phantom64 local bus video card go one of these ProAudioStudio/Spectrum16 audio card days.) 2 quantum 540lps drives 1 seagate 20mb drive 1 Toshiba CDROM 1 Archive Viper150 (ick!) tape drive. Any info you can spare including maybe how I can provide you with more info if it would help would be fantastic. Thanks! -Steve
