Yes. I downloaded the whole thing and tried to install it on a new Gateway
Pentium 3 running 500MHz. It did not see my 3dfx Voodoo 3 Video card and
crashed when I tried to finish the install (Invalid access in     devcfg.exe
memory access    FFFFFFFF ). I've sent e-mail to WinLinux but they haven't
replied. BTW, I've previously installed Debian, Slackware and Redhat
distributions on other computers.
Lots of luck!
