- The system 7.1 Install disk would not boot my Quadra 700 with 20MB RAM &
- E-Machines 16" monitor. Symptoms were a blank dialog box that constantly
- rebuilt its border which appeared after the Welcome dialog box had
- appeared and then cleared.
- I was able to get around this by creating a RAM Disk and copying the 7.1
- Disk Tools System to it and setting the RAM Disk as the Startup Disk,
- rebooting and running the Installer.
