How so ? When its black screened on one of my boxes, I drop the video
resolution to something horrible and it seems to work.

With my crystal ball out on loan I think I'd struggle without some clearer
definition of 'sod all' - let's start with basics ...
o does all hardware appear to work ok with another o/s?
o does that knoppix boot ok on other hardware?
o does 'sod all' occur immediately or after some activity?

Thank God you gentleman have nothing to do with running the country, all of
this over a few pictures, and you are all of the topic of the original
posting, not that it matters.
Maybe you should all look for something like "alt.fan.P.C.'s" and you could
break all records for the longest running "thread" as you call it.
No mallice meant boys.

indeed, it does not.

oh my - nowhere near the longest and they're called threads by convention
in much the same way that those black round wheel covers are called
'tyres'.

FWIW, if you are serious about presenting your business on the www, then
you could do worse than ask for a review over at news:alt.html.critique -
I reckon that a detailed discussion is just a little too o/t for AFL.

or if you're the type that rolls up their sleeves, perhaps take a look
here for pointers...

It's very interesting, but hard to follow for a *non* techy type like me,
even more so with all the spelling mistakes ;-)
