15 I tried booting it but it didn't do right. Maybe a bad burn but I had a
16 different card and monitor in the rig then. I did boot Kanotix and it
17 worked fine with the current monitor and card. Resolution was good and
18 all. The Mandriva CD is GUI based and it worked fine as well. The OS
19 however did not work.

21 This is what is so confusing to me. I try something such as a boot CD
22 and it works. Yet no OS works. One makes me think hardware and one
23 makes me think the hardware is fine and that I have a bad config somewhere.

25 Now you know why I am posting on here.

27 Going to try some things that have been suggested now. Fingers crossed.
