i recently downloaded mandriva one kde spring 2008 .iso , burned it and ran the cd.

after the booting screen and u can see it unpacking but after its finished, the screen blanks out and nothing happens

after that.

I had ubuntu installed,i was replacing it with mandriva.

A graphics card problem apparently. When the screen blanks press Alt+Ctrl+F1, then log in as root:

localhost login: root

 

Open:

 

drakx11

 

reconfigure your card and choose the Xorg VESA driver (or if you have a Nvidia card choose the Xorg nv driver). Get back to the text console, next:

 

service dm stop

startx
