elmace Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 I have been trying since friday to install it, but I have not been able to get to the installation, after the F8, I type -v, and there is a lot of text scrolling for like 2 - 3 minutes and then reboots. What could be the problem. I have read that quite a lot, and it seems that kalyway 10.5.1 has problems installing from a IDE DVD Drive. I have an adapter from ide to sata, from a computer that I built for my brother, can I use that with my dvd drive and get a 2-channel SATA II Raid pci card along with the adapter. Or will an external dvd drive work? MY pc specs: Computer: Gateway (I believe it is a E-3600 model, I bought it back in 2001) Motherboard Name : Intel Havre D845HV (3 PCI, 1 AGP, 3 DIMM, Audio) Motherboard Chipset: Intel Brookdale i845 South Bridge: Intel 82801BA ICH2X BIOS Type AMI (08/23/01) CPU Type Intel Pentium 4, 1500 MHz (15 x 100) socket 478 mPGA MMX, SSE, SSE2 System Memory: 1.5 GB (PC133 SDRAM) Video Adapter NVIDIA GeForce 7600 GS (256 MB) Audio Adapter Creative SB X-Fi [NoDB] Audio Adapter Intel 82801BA ICH2X - AC'97 Audio Controller [C-0] Disk Drive WDC WD800JB-00FMA0 (74 GB, IDE) Disk Drive WDC WD2500JB-00REA0 (232 GB, IDE) Optical Drive HP DVD Writer 300c (DVD:4x/2.4x/8x, CD:16x/10x/40x DVD+RW) Optical Drive LITE-ON DVDRW LH-16W1P USB: Intel 82801BA ICH2X ULi/ALi M5237 USB Open Host Controller, ULi/ALi M5273 USB 2.0 Host Controller IDE Controller Intel® 82801BA Bus Master IDE Controller SCSI/RAID Controller SCSI/RAID Host Controller Please any help will be really appreciated.
