   i'm running xp home the exact error message was lost on me I'm afraid as I'm   
   more of a computer user than a technician but the message was to the effect   
   that the space for the beos boot sector wasn't large enough for the boot   
   sector which seems a little strange as the hard drive is a 160 g/b seagate   
   and it's not even half full
