(No need to SHOUT.) Try looking at the bootoptions on the f1 - f10 help screens before you boot. I would try 'linux26' (the 2.6 kernel) first and 'linux noapic nolapic' next. Other options could be disabling USB, disabling ACPI, disabling PCMCIA, ... Also check your BIOS settings. See the manual [1] for more info.
