Hi all,

I've been puzzling over this for 2 days now... This laptop barely runs the install CD, which always ends up hanging, so I resorted to doing a PXE install. It all seemed to be going great, until it gets to the point where it's supposed to detect my HDD, and it can't see it. Funny thing is, if I quit the install and reboot, it boots right into Windows XP. It's just an IDE HDD, and SBM finds it just fine. Any ideas?

Thanks,
