[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1144437, member: 46727"] Try this: Completely remove the hard drive (open the machine and remove it, replace the cover) and then attempt to boot with your install DVD. Let us know the results. Also, as cwa107 noted, your particular machine may have the infamous nVidia GPU defect. Might be worthwhile looking into if the above doesn't work. [/QUOTE]
