So, it was the hard drive. Glad to hear it was finally fixed.

It >IS< a bios problem... but it's >EZ-Drive/Bios< come back to haunt me! Seems I can't read files properly without it... and now it wants to act up and keep my system from booting when it feels like it. I remembered that I would have this problem when I 1st installed this 110 MB. I'd do something with the HDD in the Libretto, put the drive in the desktop to tweak something, put it back in the Libretto, and it seemed dead. To get things set up so that I can read files properly, I had to install EZ-Drive (we never found a way around my file error problems). But then if I wanted to partition safely, I'd remove EZ-Drive, and do partitioning in the desktop that fully supports Int13 extensions. I'd then put the HDD back in the Libretto, and it wouldn't boot. So at that point I'd put it back in the desktop and install EZ-Drive from there, and then it'd boot fine in the Libby. So I just put the HDD in the desktop, removed EZ-Drive, put it back in the Libretto, and it booted! Got me.... I need some sunshine.... Matt ... at least the 110 is back in commission. Anyone using EZ-Drive on >8GB HDDs with similar, unsolved booting problems may want to try this themselves. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
