DSL goes fine onto my cpu, or if I wanted, installed to my hard drive but it doesnt load the icons for some reason. I think it has to do with what comes up right at the beginning of the boot which I havent seen before "you passed an undefined mode number" I read to go into setup and run vga=normal, but the same problem persists! Thank you in advance for your help!

Are you running from a fresh livecd?

Run xtdesk from a terminal and maybe you can see the errors there.
