While we are talking of torture,

I bought a Gateway 2000 P90 and was going to set it up for the grandkids.

It had WIN95 on it but after I opened it up and cleaned out the dust
mites 
and put in a CD Rom drive it would not boot.  I used a boot disk with a 
cdrom driver to boot  the the computer in WIN98 and tried Norton NDD, 
but couldn't  find any partitions so went ahead and partitioned and 
formatted the drive, then installed WIN98SE.  When the computer 
rebooted to start WIN98 there was an error message on the screen 
calling for some kind of scsi port.  I have not been able to get rid of
the 
error message even after reinstalling Windoze.

Does anyone have any ideas (besides TNT)? 

Thanks,
