At the install fest it was determined that I had bad memory in my old system 
and could not install. (I am ashamed to admit that I don't know the name of 
the gentelman who spent all day trying to help me, but it was to no avail, my 
machine was beyoud help).  To make a long soriey short:  I replaced the 
memory, replaced old drives with an 80gb western digitial.  The bios doesn't 
recognize this drive, however Mandrak's boot CD finds the disk recognizes it 
as 78gb and proceeds to install clean.  now the machine will not boot as bios 
doesn't find the drive.

Soulations:

       1.  Upgrade BIOS (Can't till monday there are closed till then)

       2.  Work around?  (here is where you tell me how to do this without 
upgrading
             bios).


Thanks
