Hi guys.

I just got my pentium motherboard, and I think I've run
into some trouble...
When I try to boot it from floppy, it just chews a couple
on the floppy and says "press a key to reboot". Looks like it 
doesn't find a boottrack. 
I'll try tomorrow and boot (yuck) DOS and see if it works.
If it does, I probably messed up with the floppies, and if it
doesn't work it'll be hardware. Right?

Regards,
Paul.
