Hi Chris

I'm really sorry if I've been wasting your time, turned out that
removing the nvidia graphics card, a gs7300, resolved the problem, and
this is the chief suspect as I have been having trouble with it.

( it gives these irq messages all the time

but it runs fine with ubuntu on the other computer I mentioned on the
bug report.

As requested I ran it in recovery mode and took a shot of the screen
which is attached.

Also holding down a key made no difference either when booting from the
hard drive or from the cd.

Best regards

Andrew
