OK, if it is too quiet

Don't know, just installed the defaults.  Since I cannot boot the CentOS or Ubuntu installes I can't even check to see what I've installed.  MB is a Biostar 6100-939.  The 300G HD is an IDE drive.  Swapped it out for a newer SATA drive and it works fine.  This weekend I'll put the 300G IDE in a different PC with a different MB and try it out.
