BIOS? Help installing

[virtanen <hvirtane@cc.jyu.fi>]

I've got a problem istalling slink on a machine. 
I managed to put base there. 
But when I try to install the rest (using the atapi cd-rom) the whole
machine shuts down suddently. The power goes off suddently. 

I've been suspecting two causes:

1) Is it possible, that the system is somehow using the cd-rom driver
wrongly? I had a problem with the base as well, if there was a cd inside
the drive. I couldn't boot the system then. The system was as well giving
a message that it is trying to intall a scsi-driver, which it cannot find.
As far as I know there aren't any scsi cards.   

2) The other possibility is the BIOS. 
It is 
Award Modular BIOS v4.51PG
Plug and Play BIOS Extension v.1.0A

With win95 it has got a property that it is shutting power off
automatically, when I stop win95. 

I cannot give any list of error messages, because the whole system is
broken after going off. 

Anybody had similar problems or knows what to do?
