Additionally, I would make sure the drive is formatted with FAT32 or NTFS. You may want to try a boot disk with fdisk and see if there are any non-windows paritions on it, and if so delete them (note: data will be lost when you do this, btut it sounds like you are installing clean anyway). --- End quote --- Boy did you come in late.

Ok pride swallowing time: #1 my first problem was the drive wasn't set to "active" #2 my second problem not pulling out the cd when the op system asked for a restart. "note to self when running a fever of 100f don't start to build a pc system" Again thanks to everyone who helped! |
