venorm Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 HeyHo, now after some hard days to get my first pc working, not i am trying to get my notebook - vaio vgn-ar71s - to work. The problem is the graphics card. I used the kalyway 10.5.2 intel amd DVD to install the system. But also at the first boot of the system (after the installation) where the welcome video should comes up, i only get a black screen. I think its because i selected the 8600 GT drives in the setup (but the description says its for mobile cards too) So is there an other solution available, because now it only runs with vesa drivers. Should i trie the newes nvinstaller (5.2) or something else ? Thanks. UPDATE: -nvinstaller v52 does not work - black screen (see next post) -nvkush doesn't work - black screen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
