Same problem here on a Acer TM 2001LM laptop with ATI 9000 IGP display adapter. Found a solution by manually editing menu.lst and changing the 'quiet splash' defoptions to 'nosplash' (just deleting these options will make them reappear after the next update-grub). I also deleted the 'splashimage' option.
Of course, with the next 'update-grub' my changes are gone, e.g. during a kernel update.
