Mandriva 2007 doesn't start...it just keeps restarting computer
This is a new one. I just finished burning the Mandriva 2007 live CD, and when I go to use it, it boots to CD, I see 'boot>', press enter, or wait like 5 seconds, it starts loading, and 2 lines into the startup sequence the computer reboots.
I've never seen a live CD crash so fast in my life.
Any ideas?
I have a Toshiba Tecra A5, Intel Centrino 1.86GHz, ATI Radeon mobility x600SE (i think), 512MB RAM, DVD-RW drive. Pretty standard...except linux hates my video card, and ATI isn't providing full linux support. If anything I'd guess it has something to do with that...because the screen turns off and on once before actually restarting.
I don't need this live CD, I run Ubuntu 6.10, but I wanted to test out Metisse in Mandriva, as I have had problems setting it up in Ubuntu...though Ubuntu has given me just enough to tell me I want to see it work properly.
