Maybe you could try the "Live Eval" disk, then you could try Suse 9.0 without messing up your hd and see what it finds?
I could but it isn't that hard to install anyway. If I find solutions or fixes, I can do them and have a working system. If I don't, it still is an interesting exercise.
I really would like to get this computer to work with SuSE 9.0 so if anyone can offer help, I would appreciate it.

How about Knoppix? Perhaps not the best suggestion on a SuSE list, but Knoppix is pretty bleeding edge and is well-known to handle all sorts of hardware. At least, if SuSE doesn't detect the hardware I would try another distribution just to compare. And of course, run some hardware checks in Windows and note the name of all parts. When you know the exact configuration of all parts attempt to set up manually in SuSE "in the usual way" so to speak.
