I have been trying to upgrade 95 to 2000.
On about the third reboot from the CD I get a "A DISK READ ERROR OCCURRED" Alt/Ctrl/Del to restart and it just loops back to the same message.
My computer is a Technicl P100 computer to which I have added 128Mb of RAM
I suspect the problem is that the BIOS does not recognise that there is a CD and therefore you cannot boot from it. I have seen AMIBIOS literature that shows a CD in the BIOS so that it can be put in the boot sequence.
My Motherboard is a Biostar 8500 TAC with AMIBIOS TAC0503A dated 10/10/94
The Biostar site suggests that I find a AMIBOOT.ROM put it on a floppy and press Ctrl/ Home http://www.biostar.com.tw/app/en/support/faq.php?S_ID=392
and http://jc-schwartz.net/public/Bilan_jcs.pdf
but it does not do anything. I have tried it on a 'blank' disk and a boot disk - neither works.
I have also found an AFDOS.EXE which I can get to the A:> but I am unsure about the options I should use and the ROM file which I should use.

Can anyone help please?
