542031 2007-04-18 07:34:00 Hi I have been able to insta Mandriva 2007 but it asks me for a logon and password in a "dos" looking screen. Any ideas?
Thanks

542032 2007-04-18 07:57:00 I'm pretty sure Mandriva asks for a root login on installation, did it ask for a standard user one to? If not login as root and try and create a standard user account.

Possibly try Admin/Admin?

Sorry I couldn't help more, I can't really remember installing Xandros 3.0.2 (OCE not paid edition :nerd: ), but I think it asked me to create a user as well as a root on installation or on the first login screen.

542033 2007-04-18 10:56:00 It should by default have done a full graphical install. When does this prompt appear? Did it give you any error messages during installation? TGoddard (7263)
542034 2007-04-19 01:35:00 Hi thanks for your reply. I think I will reinstall as I may have got the graphic card setting wrong.
Cheers,

542036 2007-04-19 23:29:00 Thanks , I have it working. I did a full install from an iso on one hard drive to the other. I have a couple of minor problems I'll check the net for but all is working.
Thanks
