Hi
Have Warp 3 connect orginal. Installation starts fine. I partion the disk with boot manager at the beginning of the drive and a 500 meg partion as space for Warp. Set this partion as installable and save and quit FDISK. Installation reboots and I accept C: as place for warp. It copies files and asks for reboot. Boot manager comes up and I press enter on the os entry and then a message comes up saying Disk not formatted press any key. That as far as the installation goes.
Thanks for time
System crash

Do not set the partition to installable. Simply partition, quit fdisk, reboot, and then set the partition to installable. Even if fdisk complains "no partition is set to installable", ignore this, quit, reboot. Then set it as installable. This may or may not work, but it's worth a try.

How big is the hard drive total?
You can avoid many of these Windows problems with Linux. Linspire eases the transition for new users
