Re: Asus p4p800 deluxe BROKEN INSTALL on FC5- FC6-FC7

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have an Asus P4P800, people online over the years have suggested all
kinds of boot tinkering and software changes. None of them ever work.

The ONLY way you are going to get this board to work with Fedora is
to change a BIOS setting.

In your BIOS goto ..

Main > IDE Configuration > Onboard IDE Operate Mode

Change it from Enhanced Mode to Compatible Mode.

After you have installed Fedora you can return it back to Enhance
mode.
