I just bought a new A-bit Kt7a raid motherboard and put in -
AMD 1 ghz cpu
45 gig ibm hdd
256mb
PS
hs/fan
ATI rage fury video card
All AMD approved components.
Nothing else.
I ran fdisk and formatted ok. But when I try installing win98se I get the error "Invalid true type font" and the system locks up. Tried several times and I just get the same error.
Anybody ever run into this?

Nope.... sounds like another ABIT quirk. Do you have a buddy with a Win98 disk? I'd try a different disk... but other than that I'd say its hardware.

If your only using one hard drive, I'd try putting it on one of the normal IDE connectors, not the Raid one. See if that does anything.
