Hi all,

I am having trouble booting into Knoppix from a new Live CD.
I'm running Knoppix 5.0.1 on a standard Dell Optiplex SX280
Like others, during the boot, as the system reached the X-windows section, my monitor seems to go into power-save.
Now, previosly, the monitor was successfully detected by the boot.
I have looked at the FAQ solutions, and tried each in sequence, and also the Cheatcodes, without solving this, so please don't flame for not reading the manual...
Trying the Cheatcodes, when it suggests I try 'debug -b' etc. and type exit after each prompt, my keyboard typing is not recognised and the prompt remains.

Any help would be greatly apreciated.
I'm no expert, so please reply in simple terms...

Thanks
mark.
