While booting, after I select the monitor type, I get the following respons=
e:

panic: vmap: va=3D0xe0000fff pa=3D0xd0001000 pde=3D0xe8000093
dumpstack disabled
cpu0: exiting

This has been the response for xga and multisync, and i get a
blank/distorted screen (some random vertical bars of various colors,
and no response to input) when i choose vesa.  I have tried both the
default 640x480 resolution, as well as the maximum resolution for my
monitor, 1600x1200, for all three, and that doesn't seem to change its
response.

Processor: AMD Athlon 3000+
Motherboard: nVidia nForce2
Monitor: http://monitors.alege.net/Hyundai-ImageQuest-V995-White-19-inCRT-C=

Video card: GeForce FX 5700  LE

I'm guessing it has to do with the video card.
