Re: Newbie needs help with installation
Is the cd-rom attached to the sound card? There's a few trouble about it. I had to put
mines at the onboard secondary IDE, since I have Win95, Windows NT and Linux on the
same machine.
NT does not recognize a CD-ROM at the sound card. I think there's a way to do so in
Linux - Don't know how (I'm a newbie, too). I suggest you to put the CD-ROM at the
onboard IDE and make the installation. You should let it there, unless you have
trouble with win95 (I have it - I just can read thru the 16 bit driver).
