DOS on pentium
hi everyone..
i'm just a little krulik and very new to this forum so i hope people will bother reading this..
well anyway, i have a little problem:
one day i figured that over the years i managed to acquire some nice collection of computer parts and assembled this machine:
award pnp bios (1997)
pentium mmx 200 mhz
64mb edo ram
seagate 130mb hd (as NORMAL CHS)
matrox 12gb hd (as LBA)
preety cool! 
i wanted to install dos 6.2 on it with the 12gb as master hd (as boot partition) and the result after restarting was an infinite loop
of 'devide overflow'. i switched between the hd, and now i have the 130mb as the master with the dos booting from there.
the problem is when it loads config.sys, it halts on the line which loads SETVER.EXE and HIMEM.SYS.
any ideas?
maybe i cant run dos on pentium?
maybe the hd are bad?
maybe i did something stupid (probably)?
please help..!
