The video card is an AGP ATI Rage IIc. The motherboard is an AK73Pro and I had successfully updated BIOS tp the latest release. No problem with install, just login screen crashing with blocks of stuff on the screen. I haven't used this computer in years and it had SuSE9.2 on it that I had ocnfigured ok. Can't remember if there was a problem with this card or not with SuSE. During my second install I had only selected to install server and server Gui. Do I need to install Gnome or KDE, on the first install I had selected Gnome Desktop as well. I have seen posts about this problem for other distros but not Centos. Bug in x-server-xorg file or something. Not sure it isn't the video card. Could use SuSE backup xorg.conf I suppose. Cheers MazinOz
