still can't install - HELP!

I am truly stuck on a warp4 install for the first time. The machine is
a:
AMD K6 266
64MB ram
Fujitsu 4.3GB IDE HDD
Seagate IDE Travan tape drive
AOpen ATX MB
S3 Virge AGP card

I have successfully updated the floppy discs.
The problem is that the install hangs in disc2 with the 'please 
wait....' message. Initially it hung on disc1 on loading 'mouse.snp' 
but this was overcome by disabling hardware protection. Of course 
pressing Alt-F1 means that I can't press Alt-F2 so I can't see where 
the problem is. Any ideas?

Regards

Michael Block
