OK, so I have re-downloaded the iso - and the MD5sum checks out fine. I
reinstalled it OK and everything looked fine - UNTIL i enabled the
proprietry NVIDIA drivers for my 7200GS. I then got the same problems -
exactly. Once I disabled them again evertyhing worked perfectly. I even
tried using envy to install them ( www.ablertomilone.com) and the
problem returned. A friend has suggested it might be an Open GL
conflict somewhere along the lines, but I am at a loss on how to
proceed now.
Any help would be awesome :)

So - has anyone else encountered this - or does it sound like I may have
a hardware fault? It's driving me nuts. I really want to ditch Windows
for good, but only if it's gonna work!
It sounds like you *may* have a dodgy install cd... can you check the md5sums for your disc/*.iso file against what it should be?
There's a good how-to here:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM
(What the sum should look like can be found here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes)

I'll give that a blast - but I did verify my CD from the boot menu -
and it said it was OK.
