Hi All,

I am trying to install a new Terminal Server 4.0 on PC having an IDE HDD
40GB.
I made three setup-disk floopy, and overwrite ATAPI.SYS file on disc3 with
same file copied from my existing terminal server. Then I can run the
first-install, like create a 4gb partition, then format, then pre-install
the files from CD to HDD.

Now, my problem is when files copied, the install process asked me restart
the computer, and after restarted, it showed me converting FAT to NTFS, then
it hanged there, no any response.

Is there any other files need to be update on the CD? How can I install
Terminal server 4.0 software on the big hdd ?

Thanks

Michael

And,today, I tried to install Terminal Server 4.0 on a 10GB hdd with the
same setup disc and method, I still have the same problem.
Then, when I tried the same way on a 4.3GB hdd, I successed.
So, it seems Terminal server 4.0 can not read the hdd hardware info for
large hdd.
Kindly please tell me how to overcome this limit?!

Thanks

Michael
