red hat 7.2 problems

[conjurer111]

Hi,

Please help me out. I just finished installing linux. i have installed linux in my linux ext partition and specified the mount point as /, linux swap was already there, carried on with all the instructions properly. Now there was an option to install to grub or lilo, so I selected grub and installed it on mbr, coz that's what the help said. Is it right? Everything worked on fine but now when I start linux in graphics mode, all I see is black and white vertical lines with that faded hat man behind and nothing else, something wrong with resoultion and colors. What to do now, and also now my windows won't start, is it somehting to do with that mbr thing. Please suggest how to fix this. Thanks and regards.

Bring your system in single user mode or upto level 2.
at prompt enter single and it will boot in single user mode. then type init 2 will bring in run level 2.
type Xconfigurator and setup different settings.

Or I think
currently if your type alt-f1 or alt-f2 will gets you to command prompt then setup X.
