Windows Question Kevin Keast Mon, 26 Apr 1999 08:38:27 -0700

I have a quick windows question for any of the computer gurus:

I am building my new HA system and have the following problem:

I format the hard drive: no problems
I install no problems, until:

Windows starts for the first time I get the following error:

device IOS:
Windows protection error

This is on a black screen.  Any ideas?

System specifics:

Tyan AT MB PC-100
AMD 6 K2 450
HD 520 MB Seagate (Old hard drive)

I think it is the Hard Drive but don't know.  Under the dos prompt I can access all
drives no problem.

Anomally:  I did get windows to load in safe mode once but cannot make it do it again.

Any help is greatly appreciated

Thanks in Advance
