SYSTEM SHOWED BOOT LOADER ERROR AND WAS UNABLE TO DETECT HARD DISK.
AFTER MAKING CERTAIN ARRANGEMENT IT RAN ALSO BUT DURING BOOTING OF
LINUX IT SHOWED UNSUPPORTED CHIPSET. AND THEN AGAIN AFTER RESTARTING THE
COMPUTER IT AGAIN STARTED SHOWING BOOT LOADER ERROR.

It sounds suspiciously like a setup, hard disk, or memory
problem.
* Are you overclocking the processor or the memory?
* could your power supply be too small?
* could you run processor/disk/ram diagnostics?
- Try reverting your BIOS settings to non-aggressive "safe"
settings.
- are you running the latest BIOS?
- try a minimal install, with as few options as possible.
- as an experiment to see if the hardware is usable in its
current state, can you temporarily install RedHat 9.0
Linux, or NT, or XP on that machine and have it run reliably?
(no flames please, i did say "temporary" after all)
