PCI Graphics card
The only way I can boot up Knoppix 5.1 DVD on my machine is to disable my GFORCE FX 5500 PCI card and use my onboard video. Is there a way around this or am I stuck with having to do this. Thanks

Sounds like a strange problem. What happens when running from the PCI graphics card? Maybe the problem is something as simple as the PCI card running at resolutions and/or scan rates beyond the range of the monitor (most likely a too high scan rate, in which case you should be able to use a cheat code to force the scan rate to one acceptable for the monitor). And short of removing the PCI card, how do you "disable" it and use the on-board video? Beyound these thoughts you'll likely have to give us a better idea of what is happening and a breakdown of all the hardware including the monitor before we can guide you well.

and just Well my Fx 5500 works with my monitor (E-Machine Flat CRT) running xp just fine. On xp i have it on 1024x768 and only 60 hertz but it can do 85htz at that setting. I just go into my bios-cmos and disable the PCI video card and enable the onboard video which is an intel extreme. My machine runs a 1.8ghz celeron, 756mb of pc2100, 60gig HD and I am using the DVD version 5.1. Hope this gives you a little more info and THANKS!

Well, I hope someone else usig a fx 5500 joins in here, but have you tried using cheat codes to force a resolution and scan rate that you know that you can work with? You could even test the use of cheat codes in you present on-board confguration and then once you were comfortable that it was working as desired switch to the PCI card and see if the codes corrected the problem.

got the same problem, as soon as there're 2 graphic cards (one onboard and one "real") installed, knoppix doesn't boot any longer.
as i've said in another thread, i can't disable the onboard vga completely ...
any solution ?
