Hi,

Just installed PQ Drive Image 7 software on a brandnew Dimension 8300 (standalone) to make system-backups. Instead of dos-emergency-boot from a floppy (like previous versions) this one creates (has to ;) a 32-bit 'PowerQuest Recovery Environnement' when booting from the original installation-CD.

Unlike other machines booting gets locked on my Dell with a message after trying 'initializing network' :

"Failed to install network adapter -- check winbom"

Don't know if any connetion but the Nec DVD+RW ND-2100AD on my Dell is not listed in the Powerquest supported Opitical drive list ...

Anyone with the same experience ... and maybe ... a solution?

Many thanks

Jan
