I've tried Apple, DejaNews and comp.sys.mac.system with no luck/reply.

I'm trying to do a clean install of British OS 7.6.1 onto a Quadra 840AV
with a re-initialised, totally blank HD with updated driver.

The furthest I get is an apparent OK install, but when I restart the Quadra
it comes up with the black screen and the *very* sad Mac with two hex error
codes (can't recall which at the moment) which I associate with hardware
problems rather than software.

Can anyone out there help me?

TIA,

jag
