Still having a boot problem. Got to work this morning and booted the machine (I had changed from LiLo to GRUB GUI) and got a GRUB error message #21 and then could go no further and had to reload Mandriva again.... Here's the system ...

Dell Dimension XPS T600 (600 MHz) Bio's A04  Ram is 512
X86 Family 6 model 7
HDD IBM DPTA-373420 (running XP Pro - no problems)
Maxtor 6L080J4 (Runs Mandriva - Boot problem)
Video All-in-Wonder 128 Pro ultra AGP
Monitor View Sonic E655-2
SCSI Raid Controller Ultra IDE (not Used)

This install is from the live CD Mandriva One 2007 which was downloaded from the Internet as a try before buy from the Mandriva site. If anyone has any more ideals I sure could use some help. Failing that if someone could tell me how to uninstall Mandriva so I could use this machine as simply an XP system I will build another computer and install Mandriva there. Thanks for the help - Johnny

Thanks Grumpy_Penguin - Just changing to GRUB GUI solved it must have
been something with LiLO! This is the unregistered 2007 so may not be
able to do the sources until I register the OS. Well with the boot
problem out of the way I still have one more issue....2007 is not seeing
my Motorola HSP 56 modem that I use for XP. Any recommendations on a
Linux compatible modem hopefully available at Wal-Mart as we do not have
a computer store in town. I am the computer repair service here and I
don't have an inventory of new parts LOL I could setup another XP
machine with a proxy server but that seems like a lot of extra work. I
appreciate your wisdom and quick help; Thank You!  Johnny
Is Mandriva not showing the modem, or simply not showing a driver for it?
