Guest Qubie Posted October 30, 2002 Report Share Posted October 30, 2002 Hiyas all, Ok, I put CD1 in my drive and boot from it, and on the first screen I hit enter to start the installation process. Then when all the system info and setup initialisation comes up it tells me: hdc: status timeout : status=0x80 {busy} hdc: drive not ready for command I have 4 devices on my IDE channels, 2 hard drives on my first (60gig primary 40 gig slave) and my CD/DVD on my second (DVD primary, CDRW slave). I have tried the mandrake CD in my CDRW drive as well, it booted ok but stopped at the same stage. I have an MSI KT3 Via 333 Motherboard with an Athlon XP 2000+, and 512 DDR. SB Live! Geforce 4 MX. Any ideas? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoopy Posted October 31, 2002 Report Share Posted October 31, 2002 First things first. Have we checked the things mentioned with similiar problems mentioned in this forum already. Such as checking the md5sums, burning at 4x or slower, etc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
