Hello, I'm having problems when the computer boots. It gets as far as starting to load the packages, but after it starts loading the 1st or 2nd package it reboots & starts all over. I've tried several things including using my old dos norton's diagnostics disk & ran a burn in for 2 hours no problem, testing memory, floppy drives, video, etc... but when I stuck the Bering boot disk in it did the same thing.
Now here's the really weird thing... it *was* working just fine. Then I actually mounted the floppy drives to the casing, screwed the cards in, put the top back on it & took it downstairs... now it doesn't work no matter what I do. Not only that, but if I screw the screw that holds the video card in all the way it gives me an FDC error when it boots, I have to unscrew it half a turn to a full turn to get it to boot without this. I've even tried to disassemble the hardware & insert the cards into different slots, reassigning IRQs, taking everything out except the video card & 1 of the floppy drives, still no dice even with the standard Bering rc3 boot disk (which works, I tried it on at least 2 other computers & it at least gets me past the login). The only thing I can think of is maybe there's something wrong with the cpu, but I'm not even sure about that... it's an AMD k-5 p100 & using the norton's diagnostics disk it tested out at an average of ~101Mhz. All the hardware has been tested out on other computers except the motherboard & cpu. Any ideas as to whether this is a software or hardware problem?? Thanks for any help. Patrick P.S. anyone know what drivers would work with a gigafast ethernet card? the drivers disk came with rtl8139.c & compile batch file. I've not been very successful in following the instructions on the site to set up a virtual environment to compile stuff. ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: Jabber - The world's fastest growing real-time communications platform!
