PfSense Install headace

fatboy95

During initial install the computer stops responding before it ever loads any options. See image "error".

I have used this disk in couple other computers without any issue…
I have tried at least 4 different DVD drives and it always shows this issue.
I have tried 2 different hard drives.
I have switched every setting in my bios possible.
I have access to another computer with the same exact motherboard and it installed no issue.
When I put that motherboard in this case it would not install and locked up same point.

I think that is about everything I can think of at the moment that I have done. This is pretty frustrating.. I have IPCop running on the machine right now. it just doesn't give me the options I need like pfSense says it does... lol...

Thanks for any input or direction provided... I do have a USB mem stick but my bios doesn't allow boot from USB Mem stick.. only USB floppy, dvd and zip drive..

Try disabling your A drive in bios. Unplug the drive. Have you checked it to make sure there is no disk in drive A?

That would be the 5-1/4" floppy… or am I thinking too DOS like?

I have disabled it.. its actually got two 3.5" floppy's listed… I even plugged one in just to see if I could get by the lockup.. I will take a double look tho..

thanks..
