How about narrowing the possibilities by describing more, including sharing some hardware specifications, like age of PC, which video chip (& onboard?; PCIe vs AGP vs PCI), CPU, RAM, installation type (network vs DVD vs PXE, etc; minimal vs KDE vs Gnome or other), grub version installed (have you only tried the default Grub2?), storage system bus type (PATA/SATA/SCSI; controller chip), etc.?
I realize my report was a bit sketchy. Since the system freezes so early in the boot process, I never get a chance to see how Linux views the hardware.
Hardware info is all available if the system is multiboot and still boots another install, or if for the purpose you do some kind of live media boot that doesn't have the same problem.
The system is not multiboot. It did not come with any Microsoft stuff. The test of other OS installs was by the equipment supplier. I will dig up Knoppix or some such and see what is under the hood.
