I don't know how many times I've reset BIOS to defaults, I'll look at these tonight. Just spent 2 hours trying to get the Live DVD going but it seems to have a DVD read error although the cretaion included verification at every step! The check-media module requires a graphical screen for some reason but the screen just goes black. I couldn't get the install DVD going either without ending up with a corrupt screen. Ran out of time!
I wish you luck, I've never had this much fun trying to get graphics going. Not even in the Mandrake days. (when you had to set the modelines for your CRT Monitor in xorg.conf that was based on the particular hsync- and hsyn+ and vsync values for your 500 lb monitor :)
+1 My good old days started with Slackware on multiple floppy’s Hand configuring graphics was always fun. Ken
