MY machine is almost the same as yours, exceptions are 1600XP and 256mb pc2100 DDR !!!! It was the finest install I have ever made! Just dropped in the mdk9 CD into the CD tray and watched the show! It was a real nice experience since I made the machine myself and I was unsure of my settings! The Only big thing I found before buying this mobo was ***several*** recomendations (warnings) about the "relation" of seagate HD and Linux!! So, before install I've changed it to a Quantum 40Gb!!! Then after, compiling and loading de NVidia 'rpms', the sound is loud and clear as well the 3D (+acceleration) If my sources are right.... Why don't you try another HD? just to eliminate this possibility!
