Are you familiar with the pci=nomsi that is to be installed in a line in 
the boot instructions?  When I first installed my OS and new components, 
it was necessary that I type in pci=nomsi in the boot instructions 
somewhere.  I immediately got a GUI.  Hein says I need to do that and it 
will fix the problem.  I have made a couple requests regarding this, but 
no one responds to that issue.  I don't know the importance, but I do 
remember that it was necessary to get a GUI back when I built the 
machine.  If you are not familiar with the instruction that is one 
thing, but before I reinstall the OS, and since I have a disenting 
opinion from Hein, I at least would like to try that before giving up.  
And by the way, I have had more fun in this attempted repair than all my 
other time operating a computer.  I have learned a lot just by going 
through the problem so many times.  I am truly grateful for the support 
and thank you all from deep down.  It has been hugely fun!

Most cordially,

Steven
