Installation woes!



Hello!
 
I have installed RH 6.2 on my master HDD and have windows running on the slave. I had a problem with the cpuid which I have now cured thanks to the support link on the red hat page, but now I have another problem! When I come to the login window it is blank. Some scattered pixel lines can be seen but that's about it. I presume that under all this is the login screen.
 
My thoughts where that maybe I chose the wrong resolution whilst installing, or I chose the wrong graphics card. Mine wasn't listed (Hercules Geforce2 MX 64MB) so I chose a NVIDIA 256color Geforce 2 instead, (it seemed the most logical option). I did try testing the configuration, but t crashed the installation. Has anybody else got this card or had the same trouble when installing red hat?
I suppose the other thing it could be is the resolution, but I used the details straight from the handbook.
 
Does anyone now a way of altering the installation preferences (resolution, graphics card selection etc) from the lilo boot prompt or is it a case of start again??
 
Cheers
