Without more information, nobody can take a guess at       what's going wrong. Does the installer refuse to start? Does it get to a       certain point and then start? Does it install all the way and then refuse to       actually boot Windows?              Assuming it's not that last guess, you could *try* copying the K8's install       to the K6's hard drive. (You'll need to do it from outside of Windows, using       some sort of boot disk or live CD.) On first run in the K6 box it'll update       drivers for a while, and then... it may or may not work.              --       You always know the right thing to say,       because it's usually the opposite of what comes out of your mouth.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
