    JAL> That is unfortunate. What was the motherboard, if you don't   
    JAL> mind my asking? I'm wondering what specifically would hinder   
    JAL> the password prompt but not the installation itself.   
      
     First, I'd have to power it back on, but I had to swap out the   
   monitor that was on it, as I had another monitor that failed. With   
   overnight thunderstorms forecast, I'll be shutting things down before   
   I go to bed.   
      
     Second, the install seemed to work just fine, but after the   
   reboot, I could never get past the password prompt. Several have   
   told me that because it was a 32-bit system and the install was   
   64-bit, combined with the CPU being too slow, was why it would   
   not work.
