What turned out to be the cause of the screen going into sleep mode right after the Install screen pops up was that the NVIDIA card wouldn't handle the 1024 X 768 in install mode. I tried first doing a text only install and watching the error messages and everything went smoothly. Then I tried to reinstall with 800 X 640 and all went well. Recognized the harddrive and installation went smoothly. When the install was completed I was able to bump the resolution to 1024 X 768 and I am sure further if need be. I learned an important lesson here and thank all that responded. Cheers, Bob
