Since about version 1.0, I cannot boot DSL on my computer. When booting, I see the two little penguins, the cursor flashes a couple of times and disappear. Then, nothing on the screen except the two penguins at the top left. Sometimes, if I press Enter, I get the disclaimer and it stops there afterwards. If I boot with the new lowram option, the IDE drives are detected and it hangs just after that.
I've tried everything:
-Safemode, and other boot options -Tried every version from 1.1 to 1.4 -Downloading ISOs from various sites -Burning Iso and Syslinux version -Removing backup files on the HD -Crossing my fingers at every new version I tried
My Computer: -Asus P4P800 mobo with a P4-2.4 -1 Gig of RAM -160G SATA and 120G IDE HDs -LG DVD/CDRW and LG DVD-RW -Nvidia FX5700 Ultra and SB Live! Value -Generic LAN adaptor
So, I'm stuck with an older version of DSL that works perfectly. But, of course, I would rather use the latest DSL with all the enhancements made recently. I don't have the exact version of my presently working DSL but it dates from April 14th, 2005.
