issue booting from cd

[turtle]

for some reason i cannot get my tower to boot through to install from the amd iso my specs are in this thread http://forums.freenas.org/showthread.php?1663-spare-tower-and-questions

it gets to cd loader 1.2 and then restarts the machine over and over. it happens so fast i cant make out any messages. ive burnt three discs at the slowest speed available with imgburn.

Have you tried booting it in another pc?

I think you should try removing some of the 'extra' components from your system, one at a time until you get it to boot, or take them all out and put them back in until you can't boot. I'd start with one of the graphics cards maybe. That system is really loaded with stuff and it's not easy telling what drivers FreeNAS doesn't have that one of your components might need and is causing FreeNAS to hang.
