timdsmith Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 Hit enter when the boot countdown starts and type -v That will show you any error messages that come up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdex28 Posted May 29, 2007 Author Share Posted May 29, 2007 Update. I manage to get to boot by not installing any of the drivers and extras that you get during the cutomised install. My graphics card ati radeon 9600 mobility does not work so is my wireless, any ideas. Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards I am also using T42 with 9600 mobility display, the wireless can use iwi2200 driver, but cannot use those access points which were encrypted. on the other hand, try to search for what largo taught in this forum , which may help for your display card.
