I found this to be a odd problem and a lesson. 
Always check your messages when booting.
The system was reporting a bad memory Dimm 
and offlining a bank of memory. This was causing 
the dtlogin not to complete and that is why the 
NVIDIA logo screen never went away. I re-seated 
the memory DIMM. It is happy now and the login 
screen is displayed in all of its glory.
Now I have to figure out why the sound card is not
working but thats for another post.
Thanks for the help all and I hope this will help someone else.
