[repeated with Subject line - apologies for duplication] First time Linux user and first RH 7.3 install on a home PC (AMD XP 1700, MSI-K7N420 motherboard with chipset nVIDIA nForce 420D) in dual boot with Win2000 Prof (in PartitionMagic created freespace on a 60GB h/d).
When: 1) 'testing setting' during standard install from CD (with what looks like X windows GUI screens!) - PC crashed (ie the screen blackened, the hard disk stopped, no keyboard input whatsoever accepts); 2) running X configuration manually from command line and inputting custom monitor data (since Hanson 710P is not listed) - PC crashed when 'probing'; 3) after downloading and installing nVIDIA GLX, kernel and driver rpms as suggested in: http://download.nvidia.com/XFree86_40/1.0-2960/README.txt - PC still crashes at the end of X configuration or at "startx", and the XFree86.log file is empty... What could it be? Joseph Tandl 02 6161 7891 ------------------------------------------------------------------ "There is only one satisfying way to boot a computer." J. H.
