I hate DOS and it won't read the CD from my CD drive (e:)
I used to think you typed in the name of the drive for it to change:
cd:
e:
install/setup/run
..whatever the command is but instead I get:
cd:
e:
Invalid Drive Name
*me slaps PC*
e:run
Invalid Drive Name or bad command
I really do hate DOS, I didn't get any documentation apart from the text files on the CD which are too long and boring for me to sit and read :)
ooh, also, I tried installing it through Windows and it just says they're all DOS batch files...so
I tried the DOS commands above in MS-DOS Promt and it changed the drive name..etc but said it needs to be run in the startup DOS mode thingy.
So if anyone can be bothered to write a few simple things fr me to do down here i'd be very grateful :)

Ok, i'm a little worried about my hardware, i havn't bought the videocard yet though which is a good thing as i'm not sure if the drivers will work on Linux, is there somewhere I can check it out? I saw one site and the card I want is on the supported list but i'm not sure wether to trust them or not.
Everything was installed to run the Windows CD, I don't think i'll bother with linux right now 10 more days till my laptop and WinXP come through, yay.
You need to enable booting from CS in the bios.
