Hi hammerhead25; How are you booting the lappy if there`s no O.S. on it?
If it`s HD has no O.S., then a CD-DVD or a USB flash drive ( if the lappy will boot to it ).

This this happens with HD and USB booting depending on where you put the Puppy files.
But shouldn`t happen with CD-DVD.

Read here. Note that the second suggestion worked for another TP-600 owner.
