Hi

I think msg 1 is fairly self explainatory. However, I seem to remember something about EISA card drivers needing to be loaded from the Application CD.

I've loaded an N class Ignite Image onto a K and it worked, but I did need to remove & load various drivers (lan cards). This was done after the Ignite install finished.

Where was the Ignite Image taken from, or is it a fresh install?

Hi Tim,

I am installing fresh . thru external CD-ROM drive, This is not clear to me How can I install Eisa drivers without loading O/S.

Thanks

If its fresh then you have a problem.... I think msg1 implies one of your cards has gone. Hardware problem...

BTW do you have a backup of the system? I usually put ignite onto my root mirror therefore I can always back out to the last working OS.
