Michael, I ran into the same or a similar problem. I also have the Texel 3024/Trantor T130B. While trying to load OS/2 2.1 from CD, I got the same message. To make a long story short, I was able to load all of the software onto my harddrive with from the CD, but on rebooting to configure it would go to a white screen and freeze. For a long time, I thought it was a video problem. I tried 3 different VGA cards (my original is supported under OS/2). I then started eliminating hardware a piece at a time until I got down to the Trantor, F/HD controller and video card. The problem persisted. After making a set of disks from the image files on the CD, I removed the Trantor and sucessfully installed OS/2. Now the question is, can I make the Trantor/Texel combination work under OS/2? The Texel 3024 is a selection on the CD ROM pick list, but the Trantor SCSI adaptor is not. Any suggestions out there? Steve
