Hi there

Anyone know how to remove (or at least) the suse bootloader (grub I think) so I can reformat the Linux partitions created by Suse for use by windows? The installation of this distro went very well no problems whatsoever, even though being new to linux I execrcised some simple options such as bootloader default etc. When it was time to boot into KDE (or Gnome, I tried both) the boatloader came on as per usual selected Suse and a way we went including hearing the introductory music, except that the screen was totally blank and no GUI was displayed, my monitor warns me no video signal! What to do? I tried reinstalling suse several times but to no avail.
Anybody can help?

My graphics card is VIA/S3G Unichrome IGP; Motherboard is Asus A7V400-MX; Processor: AMD Athlon XP 1000MHz; Memory: 479MB; Display Panel: NEC LCD 1760V

I actually installed the evaluation version 10.0

Suse 10.1 is still in testing so you shouldn't have installed it if you were looking for a stable distro. Beta releases are meant for developers and those willing to test for bugs. The release you should have tried is 10.0. Anyway to remove the bootloader, boot from a windows boot floppy and do "fdisk /mbr" or from a WinXP CD and get into the recovery console and do "fixmbr".

I actually installed the Evaluation version 10.0

Not sure why I thought you said 10.1.

Ahh the title of your thread says 10.1.

Problem Solved!
It seems that the issue was the onboard graphics of motherboard. I installed a PCI graphics card (ATI) and the problem went away!!! I now have a beautiful KDE desktop, and everything seems to be working spiffely!!

Thanks anyone for your help.
