[newbie] Install problems with both 7.0 and 7.1

2000-06-24 Thread aifusionextreme



While trying to install 7.0, it jams on the second 
stage install ( when the message is written on the screen). Complete lockout, 
even the off switch doesnt function which means the bios is jamed as well. 


With 7.1, this isnt an issue, but when it reaches 
the new "find PCMCIA devices" screen, it jams wen a I say yes and it jams when I 
say no. 

On 7.0, using the pcmcia image during the beggining 
of the installtion worked fine. I got a beep and everything ( which I assumed 
meant it detected the PCMCIA card and adapter). 

I have a PCMCIA ethernet card which I would like 
installed in the install. But am willing to leave it out and do it later if 
needed, but as mentioned even if I say no to the PCMCIA detection it jams. 


So basically I cant install 7.0 or 7.1 on that box. 
Any ideas ?

Details of box:

MB: HOT565
CPU: AMD-K6-2 233
Memory: 168MB
HD: 6 GB IBM
CD: unknown
Grpahics card: S3

The Only other card is the Lucent PCI - PCMCIA 
Adapter.

That BEEP is the hardware _ONLY_ telling you is has found a PC-Card
device...nothing to do with the OS.
