can anyone send me some kind of instructions so i can boot my kernels corectly?
I have tryed everything (Even GRUB) and everythis failed!
Is there any problem if i have a Athlon XP 2000+ processor?

no, the processor should not be a problem. Can you boot your kernel into bochs (this should be a good first test) or any other PC emulator ?
If you can, did you make sure you use your disk tools correctly to create your boot disk ? (how do you do this). To check you do it correctly, pick up someone else's boot disk and try to boot it. If it doesn't work as it should, ...
here comes the latest Clicker32 boot disk image. You must uncompress it and write it to a floppy using some raw-writing (or partcopy) tool ... You can use it for tests.

I can't do any kind of boot (GRUB, Bochs,...) anything! I'll try later your boot image.
