Do you mean that all the text startup stuff went by then nothing? If so it sounds like the graphics window system X is not configuring correctly. Try booting with one of the 'cheatcode'. Press f2 at boot screen to get a list of possible cheatcodes. Try any that have to do with video...also try the 'no's' no apic, noagp etc. eg 'knoppix noapic noagp'.
Knoppix I think will try and put a PC into standby after awhile, you can disable it, probably with noapic.
