First, thanks for the quick reply - IT WORKED!
 
In answer to..
 
"Please specify "installation starts". This means you succeeded in
installing the complete freedos beta9prerelease4, and are now booting
from harddisk?"
I have completed running "fdisk" and "format /u /s" to install the boot system on c: drive.
But when I started the install, I had the reported trouble.
 
I changed my screen mode to "MONO" as instructed by your reply and the installation worked fine, thanks.
 
Thanks again.

> Hi,

there are 2 mouse drivers, ctmouse.exe is started by default. please try
ctmouse2.exe if that works better for you.
emm386 from www.drivesnapshot.de/freedos/emm386x8.zip (try the normal
emm3866.exe and himem.exe from that package)
as alternative, download UMBPCI from
http://www.uwe-sieber.de/files/umbpci_e.zip

a listing of the contents of the bootupfiles could have helped a little.

if the installation from cdrom crashed, it must have been the GUI
installer or mouse driver. in that case, just use the text-installer by
selecting MONO as screenmode.

hope this helps you,
