[SOLVED] Blank screen while rebooting after installation - Mandriva 2008

[kamaraj]

Hi, I am new user to Linux . I successfully installed Mandriva 2008 . It told to remove media and reboot . While rebooting it goes blank before asking user name & password . I am using AMD 64 bit . Previously I successfully installed Ubuntu . Since i was unable to detect my dial up modem , I tried Mandriva .
Suggestions plz. I formatted and reinstalled again . Still getting the same problem

Hmm,,, what kind of hardware is it? Are you using a special graphics card or anything?

Hi! Thanks . I have solved the problem . I am using M2N8-VMX ASUS Mother board .
Re-installed.Clicked configure button for Grub and unchecked 'Enable ACPI' . I don't know why , but it worked .
Now I am having a new problem . Mandriva doesn't detect Dial-up modem . I am using HUAWEI WIRELESS MODEM . Can you guide me ....plz.

I'm sorry, but I haven't used dial-up for a long time, and never that brand (I used a Zoom USB Modem, which came with Linux drivers out of the box). I suggest you start a new thread about this issue. (New threads are more likely to be read by others because they can be viewed through the 'unanswered posts' link.)
