Subject: [PCBUILD] PC Installation Problems


Hi!
I'm having problems trying to install any OS on a PC thats got 500MHz
amd processor, 2.1 GB HDD, 128 Ram, Atrend ATC-5200 and all hardware
tested using PC Check as ok, also swapped HDD, Ram, Processor etc. The
problem I face is whatever I try installing  Win98/Win 2000/Win Xp with
any file system FAT or NTFS, after installation and restart for the
first time it crashes, it never goes to the GUI stage at all. The one
time I was sucessful with Win 98, it started to crash after a few days
of use. I've also tried partitioning from fdisk,delpart/partition
magic/Disk Manager etc still no joy. Could some one please advice what
must be happening and any suggestions to sort this out. Thanks a lot
Tony
