Yes, I did try that option... and no it doesn't come up in the VESA boot option.

In the log, it loads the keyboard driver then:
  ---[Xorg.0.log]---
(II) NVIDIA dlloader X Driver 180.44 Mon Mar 23 16:29:50 PDT 2009
(II) NVIDIA Unified Driver for all supported GPUs
(II) VESA: driver for VESA chipsets: vesa
(II) Primary Device is:
(WW) Falling back to old prob mthod for vesa
(EE) No devices detected
Fatal server error:
no screens found
  ---[Xorg.0.log]---

So, It's loading modules for my video card (as it said it supported) and then 
erroring out on it.  Like previously mentioned, this machine has two bridged 
nVidia Geforce 6800GT SLI video cards... The cars are set "PCI1 --> PCI --> 
PCI2" in BIOS.  BIOS is also set as "pnp OS" = "NO" and configs all devices in 
BIOS.  For thos not familiar with these cards, there is two video ports each... 
SLI bridged = all video resources are routed through one port of one card.

So you think it might be confused on "two" video cards instead of a "single" 
card?
