IBM 600E FC/3 install problems (newbie)


Help please. I have a four disk installation set of FC/3, and an IBM 600E.

The first two disks installed apparently correctly. It then asked if I wished to install the stuff on disk 3 & 4. Of course I said yes. It told me to insert the disk, which i did, and got the error msg " No disk found" I tried both disk 3 & 4 and got the same results. So I rebooted as it was. I was able to read disks put in the cd drive but if tried to play an audio cd I got "Drive error". Also my PCMCIA wireless network card doesn't even have a power light. Any help will be appreciated. Oh yea, It says no sound card found.

Two disks is usually plenty for a basic install. One will normally do, then you can get anything else you know you need from the internet. Seeing as your a complete newb, try to concentrate on one thing at a time and go from there. With your audio cd problem have a look here http://www.google.com.au/search?hl=e...e+Search&meta= and see how you go. Havent looked at any of those links, but looks promising.
have fun
