I tried the graphical installer on my personal laptop and received the same results. I also tried testing one of my companies other nc8430s (as I mentioned, we have several thousand and a few dozen lying around the shop as replacements) and it responded by displaying a blank pane. lspci output for this laptop is attached (both lspci -vv and lspci -vvn) I will attach the error output for the text based install shortly, as it is different and saved on my personal computer (I am currently writing this using the fiesty live CD.
