When I get home tonight I will do some more tests. The original video card (that worked) was a GeForce 9800 GTX I believe. Again, the only thing that changed was the video card (the old card died). To eliminate all possibilities when I get home I'll try the following and report the results. 1. I have a wifi keyboard mouse combo connected through a USB hub. I'll plug an old school keyboard mouse directly into the box 2. My wife has an older GeForce card in her machine, I'll test it in this computer and see if I get different results. 3. I can't boot into opensolaris, so I'll run a lspci under GNU/Linux and see what it reports for my video card.. but I'm almost positive that its a GeForce GTS 250 because I pulled it out of the 'Galaxy GeForce GTS 250' box and installed it myself. Is there anything else that I can try to find the root cause of the issue? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
