I recently got an acer pentium 133 computer with a scsi interface (hard drive, CDROM, Tap). it had NT on it so i booted with win98 disk and blew away old partition, made new one set active. tried to boot up again with boot disk to format and it says "Your program caused a divide overflow error. If the problem presists, contact your program vendor." it says this right after the bios is installed. if i use no boot disk it says "no os installed". Any help greatly appreciated!!!
