However, I have just built a 64 bit system and I can't get 64 bit ubuntu to work on it. Windoze works fine, so I'm sure it's not the hardware. My question is...has anyone found a 64 bit Linux that's works on their computer when other 64 bit distros will not? Gary

Just because it works in Windows doesn't mean it'll work in Linux, BTW.

I'd suggest Debian.
