Hello, I haven't been able to solve this problem anywhere else so I thought I would post here.
When I use a Freedos based bootable app such as Spinrite or Seatools on my old Dell XPS-R computer I always have a lockup when I try to boot from the CD. The screen freezes and the floppy drive light sticks on with what looks like constant floppy access attempts. The computer can boot from "regular" bootable CD's such as Linux distributions and the Windows install disks. Anyone know if I can get around this behavior and use my freedos based boot discs on this PC? Thanks in advance Dell XPS-R 450 upgraded to 1.4Ghz, 768MB PC-100 Intel SE440BX motherboard ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
