It just doesn't start!

That's what i get for running from console, but if i choose open with it will show in the taskbar that 'Cedega starting' but it won't , it just shows up for a few seconds and dissapear afterwards. I tried to see if other programs work, i.e. WinRAR worked fine.

I installed the cedega-4.3-1.i386.(osloskop.net).rpm on my machine, trying to emulate Virtual DJ. As i double click the icon (.exe) in the task bar it shows that 'Cedega is starting' but after a few seconds it just disappears just as it does not want to start. Any factors that could cause this?

Hey, i will try remove my PCI card like i was thinking too, but if it doesn't work, i'll try my LE 2005 CD's that i just downloaded today.

Hey, i just tried the XFdrake feature in the failsafe mode and i individually installed my onboard and nvidia card at a time, and tried to boot on each card individually with proper driver installed from XFdrake and BIOS setup...but same thing over and over!!!!

I have tried Knoppix and it loaded no problem, don't worry i settled the video mode in BIOS properly and i installed both at the beginning so that i wouldn't run into that conflict.

I allready tried my Onboard video card and same problem occurs, it is not the nVIDIA card...

Everything loads up perfectly in the Verbose Mode, but after it is loaded it goes to a blue screen where i tried ESC and ALT+1 etc...but helpless. All i can do in that blue screen is move my mouse...and that's it!

My box specs:

 

AMD 1600Mhz

256DDR 133Mhz

80gig 7200rpm

nVidia GeForce4 MX440 64MB PCI

Hey, i just went through my BIOS and looked the heck everywhere for the ANTI-Virus feature but nothing was there except, in the security tab, where there was only password feature. So i installed the Mandrake 10.1 once again (5th time) and i see that once it boots up, the bootloader disappears and the blue screen remains forever!! I have never seen such troubleshooting, and it is very irritating!

 

After this loads up

it goes to the flat blue screen where there is nothing but the blue screen and remains there forever :o

Thanks a lot! I will proceed as you speak and will replay as soon as i try.

I run Mandrake 10.1 installation everything goes fine, and at the Package Group Selection i chose:

 

Workstation (I checked every single box)

Server (I checked every single box)

Graphical Environment (I checked every single box)

 

After all i could log on to Mandrake and properly use it, but i noticed it was the most minimal installation with the least of applications available. So i decided to reinstall the Mandrake 10.1 from scratch, and choose at the Package Group Selection the following:

 

Workstation (I checked every single box)

Server (I checked every single box)

Graphical Environment (I checked every single box)

AND

Individual Package Selection box

 

I chose every single package, so that the total size was 5gigs out of 5gigs.

When i'm about to boot at the BootLoader menu where the Verbose Mode is, it will fully load but it will stop and freeze afterwards. It remains at that blue screen forever...

Scarecrow, you seem to be an advanced Linux user, while i a newbie...could you please add my e-mail romanian_sport_playa03@hotmail.com , i'm on the MSN instantatly, most of the time..i would love to cooperate trhough instatn messaging , becase i have loads of questions to ask you ...

I don't have the iso's on my hard drive but i downloaded a decent winMD5 checksum and i don't know which file to locate from the CD (Mandrake Linux 10.1 CD1 or 2 or 3)

Like i said it gets stuck, and there seems like no options to me...if you could guide me to do something i'll appreciate so...

I have installed this for at least 4 times...and same problem..it's either a package that is causing the bootloading problem or whatever you say..

What is any option????

What i meant is that i couldn't find a screenshot with the bootloading...so i typed in words it out...
