Have fdisked an 10.1 gig IBM ATA33 harddrive for a second system and after formatting attempted to load Windows Me onto the computer. (Windows Me is the upgrade version and should load as a clean install after asking for Win 95 OEM disk for verification).
Anyway, setup will only load part way...
another question........

original message has results of test

Looks as though the MSI board is faulty.

IRQ's were ok
just looked now and according to the system it has voodoo3 3ooo
and creative live soundcard in same irq.
