<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have just brought a copy of Mandrake 10 and went
to install it on my laptop which is an Packard Bell Easynote C3, has a athlon XP
2600 processor 512 MB Ram SIS 740 Graphics adaptor and the rest of the things
that come with it. I have never used or installed Linux before and was told that
Mandrake was the best place for me to start. Unfortunatly when I run the set up
I only get as far as it asking if I want to install Mandrake and hit enter the
screen then goes blank and does nothing after this. I tried all the advanced
options for setup and the same thing happens or it appears to
freeze.</FONT></DIV>
