is it possible to boot puppy w/o copying the sfs file into ram? hlp pls...

Is that as in 'crystal' set ? You know, the one where you twiddle the cat's whisker? I may have some Cx chips still kicking around if you need spares. Why not just swap the video cards until you find one that works. If you're using on-board video, switch it OFF in BIOS. Where are you? Edit your pro...

ok tnx

tnx guys... i'll try to find my way through... I do hope it has alsa though..

tnx.
