Hello, Icaros Users;
I've been using Icaros a little in the past in a Virtual Machine, but now I need a full Amiga system compatible, so I chose one of my spare computers to be used to install a native copy of Icaros... but there's no way I can do it.
It even fails to load from the CD the first time.
The computer has an ASUS PK5KPL-AM IN/ROEM/SI motherboard, equipped with 1GB of RAM and an Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600.
I even tried in a Pentium 4 and it still refuses to load :-o

Could it be some kind of incompatibility for being a beta version? (I tried the last one)
Could it be that the computer has a GFX card included in the mainboard?
What could be happening?
Don't tell me that I should desist on installing Icarus in a clean computer :-(

Thanks!
