When the menu screen (Live , Failsafe) comes up press e (to edit) . Go to the end of the line and type acpi=off . At the bottom of the screen it will tell you the command to use to boot your PC, probably CTRL-X. A suggestion, as you are just starting Linux, is to to have a look at Linux Mint. http://www.linuxmint.com/index.php -- rob -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
