So I finally get my webplayer, and as I have already obtained the cable and a nice 4gig ibm hard drive I stick it in, after fdisking and format /s in dos--I set the bios and it is recognized, but I get nothing when booting--it propperly boots my desktop machine, but on the webplayer I get 'insert bootable disk, and press any key'--anyone have anyidea what I could be doing wrong?
thanks,
Luke.

Bad LBA support.
You need to change some things in the setup.
First there is the primary master option. Set this to 'user' then set LBA mode at 'enabled'.
You can set the primary master back to auto afterwards.
You can also set the 32bit support in the same way.

At the advanced screen there is the Large Disk Access Mode. I have set it at 'other'.

Maybe this helps.
