Jack, Stephan,

Tried 640 x 480 x 8 and 640 x 480 x 16; the same 
black screen resulted.

this CD?

No.  No CD burner here.

installing via ftp, ...

I retrieved the files by FTP and copied them to 
the HDD as instructed in AosInst.Tool.  The CD 
image would also have to be retrieved by FTP.
So FTP is needed to get files in both cases.
This is not the same as booting through ftp.  
Never tried that.

The zips extracted with no errors.  Has anyone 
else tried the crazy AosIDE.Bin? 

This machine has an old BIOS.  Any chance that 
the crazy introduced a new dependance on the BIOS?

Unless progress happens, will probably reinstall 
current soon.

Thanks for the help fellows,    ... Peter E.
