CentOS 5.6 x64 installs successfully on HP 6200pro SFF box with Intel Q65X Express chipset (including HD graphics), Core i5 and added NVS300 graphics card. Actually, it works great. HP lists "RedHat Enterprise x64" as a supported OS. The 6200pro is a "business desktop" that became available in early summer 2011.
CentOS 6.2 x64 install halts during initial boot, with boot messages stopping at "Detecting hardware".
I'm clueless on this one. Suggestions appreciated. Does anyone have CentOS running on this hardware or this chipset?

Can you boot the Centos Live CD? I've had some machines (my Acer laptop springs to mind) that won't boot off of a Centos install disk but will boot the Live CD, so I just install off of that.

We were using the Live CD. Others were trying to get this to work, with limited time available, and we did not try the netinstall CD or tweaking parameters (e.g. noprobe).
Simply hoping for some pointers.
Neglected to mention that the tubes are HD 1920x1080.

<sheepish grin> The netinstall CD works, no problem.
