Installation Keeps Hanging at Activating USB DRIVERS.....
If I do failsafe it goes but then it only installs so far before some packages start failing |

put the old video card back in and im back up and running, not sure if i should worry about that bios error at startup.
System Seems better with the additional 128 memory |

As for the video card, what kind of chipsets are on the two cards? If they use different driver then X will fail to start until you have it redetect the card. |
