I have just built a new PC using a Gigabyte GA 71XE4 Mobo, AMD Athlon 900 CPU, IBM 40 GB HDD and am trying to boot up for the first time. I have got what I believe is to be a valid boot disk from the IBM website for first time running but all I get is: Searching for boot record from floppy..not found Searching for boot record from IDE-0..not found Searching for boot record from CDROM..not found Boot failure Insert BOOT diskette in A: press any key when ready needless to say, when I press enter the drive spins up and after a couple of seconds I get the same lines repeated. Any clues?? Thanks Lee Hedley Visit our website regularly for FAQs, articles, how-to's, tech tips and much more http://freepctech.com
