I installed Mandrake 9 without problems.

When it reboots and

appears, it hangs and after a moment

,,,,,Boot |>,

the | character is a 'spade' symbol from a deck of cards.

Whats wrong? Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

Your computer is crashing after the BIOS "Verifying DMI Pool" message, correct?

You have a boot loader problem. Which boot loader are you trying to use?

Anything on your computer other than Mandrake?
