Hi,

For the all of you (it would be easier if you wrote your own problem and started your own thread), I would suggest the following:

Make sure your hard drive is on IDE #1 and set as master with the other drive on here set as slave on the jumpers.....Also, make sure the Master is on the END of the cable and the slave in the middle of the 80 pin cable (don't use a 40 pin cable).

Enter the BIOS setup menu and set your boot order to: CDRom, Floppy, and then your boot hard drive.

In the bios SETUP menu also set it to default settings....continue to next instruction.

Be sure your RAID is DISABLED in your BIOS and also make sure PnP is turned to DISABLED. (If you are using Win98, then leave PnP to ENABLED)

Save and Exit

When you put your OS disk in the computer and boot choose Format to NTSF, and then choose Install. (If you don't format and have an old drive, the chipset drivers from the old installation will keep it from working properly)

When you are done with the install....don't do anything else until you load the Chipset drivers from your CD for the motherboard.

Next, load your video drivers, then your modem drivers (don't use the XP modem drivers, load them from the disk or better yet from the modem manufacture's latest and best list), then last load your sound card drivers.

After you have done this, they should work..........
