Running in safe mode will slow your disk access down a lot. Run defrag from
within windows and it will be much quicker. It might even cure your problem.
In safe mode windows is not very smart! If you need to use windows,
consider going to windows ME, its much quicker, and seems to have far less

I would certainly turn the monitor off as monitors are quite a fire risk. I
leave my server at home running all the time behind a UPS and have never had
hardware problems. But the monitor goes off.
If I remember correctly from years ago, the problem with turning equipment
on and off all the time
7.1 is supposed to support ultra66. But it depends on the chipset I think,
and if its a plug in card or not.

If your ultra interface is a plug in card some of these look like SCSI cards
to the software. I have a promise card which always detects as a SCSI
controller.
What is your motherboard and IDE interface etc??

There is still a reason for calling Manndrake when you have a problem and
you do have support. Hopefully, the problems that get reported will be fixed
in future releases. If no-one reports the problems they will never be fixed.
The problem report needs to be well detailed but it should be submitte
If all your drives are the same ghost will copy disk to disk no matter what
the OS is.
Just open the machines and plug the copy drive into the other IDE port.

The problem is that I registered the product and as install support is
advertised I expected to get a reply at the least. $40 dollars or not they
do advertise support. It just hasn't happened. I don't want to beat up any
supplier, but I expect them to do as they say.

Robert,
Now we all know that all software has bugs. So what differentiates between
suppliers is not the interface but the support!

I had a problem installing 7.1 and as I had bough a package which came with

Easy.
Boot from a dos boot disk and use dos fdisk. Delete all partitions and
reboot from the floppy. Then type fdisk /mbr which will rewrite a standard
master boot record.
But, (as allways!!) if you cannot delete an extended partition because it

It didn't seem to matter if I tried a text based install or not, and by
doing an expert install and not allowing the PCI to be probed mandrake will
install. As you know it often asks to probe or not, at any of these times it
will lock up if allowed to probe.

Only problem with that theory is that RedHat and Caldera work OK, and I
tried the card in three different slots as well. Does your motherboard have
an AGP slot as well?
The video card could have a problem I guess, but its all pretty strange!

Any ideas? RH and Caldera handle it ok, I think mandrake need to have a

My machine boots from the cdrom (or floppy, same result) and after selecting

When I do this I get a message flashed on the screen for about 1 second
