My last computer had an K7S5A and I had no problems booting AROS native. Now that was a year ago, so something might have been added that the K7S5A doesn't like.

When AROS (Finally) has USB drivers, these issues should slowly begin to fade.

I have a printer/card reader/scanner + Modem connected to USB. It isn't that the USB devices themselves are causing the problem.

It's the USB.

Have you tried the following?

Check what AROS can see - you hardisk, etc and post the reply back here. it will certainly help in getting your (and bloods) issue resolved and hopefully system going ;)

well, i haven't TRIED anything. before I download the img file and make a CD, I am investigating info.

just so you know I have a year old Dell laptop - which is why it still has a floppy drive, btw

it's a P4 and has an nVidia card. and, of course a CD/DVD drive.

like i said somewhere around here, i'm REAL new to this. So, i'm taking all this slowly.
thanks!!


Don't worry Celia, were all here to help you along.

As your machine has a floppy drive getting the floppy version of AROS running would be the quickest, simplest way to get started.

Hmmm, I've never had to disable/unplug any USB device on my machine to boot an AROS iso. I usually have a USB-mouse, printer and cardreader connected, none of them seem to bother AROS here. Glad it appears to help for others tho .
