mandrake v8 linux - HELP!! Trying to install...

This is what I did so far. I created the boot disk, insert the floppy and CD into the drives.. went through the first steps of setup, defined the mouse, language, and chose to eerase the entire disk for clean install. THe next step is for the package listing to come up.. but that never does. What happens is the monitor light turns amber (instead of being green), so I basicaly lose video signal, keyboard lights go out, and all I hear is the power supply fan. I also cannot eject the CD or get ANY response at all and am forced to turn the machine off. Any idea anyone???



 
I just bought a copy of Mandrake myself and am having problems also. But by any chance do you have power management enabled in BIOS?

Just a guess.
