I had a few computers kicking around in the closet, and I'm trying to get at least 1 to work for my little sister. So I took a Packard Bell which originally had 8MB of RAM and a 75MHZ processor and a 1GB hard drive, and added:

100MHZ Processor
32MB Ram (changed all chips)
1.6GB Hard Drive
24X CD ROM

When I start up the system now, it says "Incorrect Drive A, Please Enter Setup" but in setup, it is the correct A drive type. I tried 3 different drives and nothing works =(

Any suggestions?
