Umm, "blue screen"?
You mean a screen with light grey text and deep blue background
and lots of hex digits in the middle and words at the top like
"Exception #XX in XMFXMX.DLL"? and no little funny ascii bug
drawing on the screen and the word "Oops"?
If that's the case, then the problem is unlikely to be related
to the CD at all...
Please confirm the above and answer danleff's questions before
we can proceed on this.

Hi,
thanks guys for the replies,
i am using suse8 server original CDs. the blue screen that i got is the manual setup screen. i managed somehow to install Redhat 2.1AS and it went smooth but got no graphical interface. i am thinking the problem could be solved by installing the right drivers.
thnx again...
