Oracle67 Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Wich iso? In what hardware? Use IDE HDD master and DVD slave. Use PS/2 Key and Mouse. Disable SMART from Bios and set boot order. Start and hit F8 and type -v press enter and give us error report. Give us some hardware details and have a good luck on your try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Ramm Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 Perhaps you should change your jumper settings. Search the forums also, there is information about this somewhere out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
format13 Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 I looked inside my 5610, and found no way to adjust any jumpers, but i did find that my harddrive is sata, would that have anything to do with the error? ill look it up as best i can Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
