    Help Installing SuSe 10.1

    Yes, I tried installing SuSe 10.1, but no matter how much I try something stops me. :'(
    These are my problems:
    + First sometimes it dosen't let me move my mouse sometimes, which get's annoying. But I think I fixed that by going to Installation ( NoApci* )
    + When ever I reach the install section it freezes up and I am forced to restart *Again*.
    + If it is installing, half way through it comes up with *Cannot install error*. It annoys me.

    These are my specs:
    + Intel Pentium 4
    + 512MB RAM
    + 80GB HDD

    If you need any other information, please ask me. I'd like to get SuSe up and running soon.

    just type the correct password and press 'Enter' key. Linux doesn't display anything while entering passwords not even '******'.

    It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.

    What happens if we accidently forget the password? Do I have to re-install SuSe?

    Okay, I've passed it all. But when I enter my password, it dosen't take me anywhere else. Do I need to type in something?

    At the moment. I'm stuck at a black screen.

    Do you have a command prompt or is it just a plain, black screen? If you're at the command prompt you can try executing:
    Code:
    $startx
    Also, let us know of any error messages you encounter during all of this.
