Same setup here. IDE CDROM and SCSI disks. Try getting into the SCSI BIOS. (With Adaptec, you'll see a Ctrl A prompt after your PC BIOS loads.) There, you should be able to find the option that makes it work. If it's not Adaptec, there should be something similar.

I'd like 9.1 on there, but the damn thing won't boot to the CD. If I go into the SCSI bios and monkey with it that the drive is basically hidden, I can boot to CD; but because the hard drive is hidden, I can't install! The comp's bios is set to boot from CD first, but the SCSI always takes over. How do I exit this loop? Miark
