Thanks for the replies I tried pfour's advice on just skipping the test during install and continuing on, and it seemed to work fine. I haven't been able to test dual monitors or TV capability yet, but I'm at a working desktop. I may be back later on with those issues Thanks for the help guys

I'm trying to install Mandriva Limited Edition 2005 DVD on my system as a dual boot with Windows, and I keep running into a problem with my graphics card. The install goes fine all the way up to where I configure my devices, and all of them are found automatically except my video card. I have an ATI All-in-Wonder Radeon 8500DV, and when I choose the Radeon driver and monitor, I choose test display, and it brings up color bars properly, looks good, then I click ok, and the screen goes black and never takes me back to the install. I've tried using the Xinerama option, configuring only the card option, choosing the radeon and radeon 8500 driver choices, but it does the same thing every time. I'm new to Linux and this is my first install, so if anyone knows how I can get around this I'd greatly appreciate it. In case it's needed, my system is: Asus P4T with P4 1.7 GHz 512 Mb RDRAM ATI AIW Radeon 8500DV Sound Blaster Audigy Platinum Ex Thanks everyone
