Booting Knoppix

When I boot the computer with the Knoppix Live CD I get the welcome screen. I click enter to boot and then everything goes black.It gets stuck.
My computer has a speed of 350MGHZ and 256 +32 MB.

hello I don't think speed is the issue, I boot my IBM laptops to knoppix 4 and one is a 200 mhz pentium I 128 meg and the other is 500mhz. Can't get either of them to run knoppix 5. Try some of the boot options F-2 & F-3 list most the common usefull ones or maybe try knoppix 4 see if it works for you.
