Smile Suse 9.3 fails on Biostar P4M80-M4


Greetings!

I am unable to get SuSE 9.3 to install on my new Biostar P4M80-M4 motherboard. This is the first time I've ever had a SuSE distro fail to install on ANY hardware! This distro runs on an ancient Intel board and and old PCChips board.

I've tried "failsafe" install, no luck

I added a video card to avoid the on board video....no joy.

Anyone have any experience with this board and Linux or other ideas to try?

Thanks,

Paxton

Smile incompatable memory

The memory the vendor supplied with the board was incomputable. The vendor changed the memory brand, and now SuSE 9.3 loads fine.

Before returning to the vendor, I tried loading Red Hat and Windows 2000, both of which also failed.
