Tell us more about your system, esp, graphics, what version of suse, what desktop - gnome - kde??? etc…
get out of all the xorg dialogs and get to a bash prompt and run sax2.

If you have NOT installed the nVidia driver click the following - you will need your root password. When it’s all done do Ctrl-Alt-Backspace to restart the desktop.
**Please post your messages in here rather than PM me all the time, I replied as below:

*One thing at a time.
Yes go to failsafe if you can login to a GUI that way.
we will deal with windows later*
as per your PM copied below:
**PLEASE can you use the forum so other can benefit from this help topic.
You need to explain yourself more clearly.
I have no idea what you mean.**
When i boot with failsafe i cant find my windows files in there(linux files)
Dude are we trying to sort out your nVidia ???
I gave you a link to click on. Did you run it.?
=====================================================
Regarding windows, you need to post some info.
Open a terminal and type
su
then your root password (it does not display as you type)
then
fdisk -l
also post the contents of
gnomesu gedit /etc/fstab
Man chill out
Do i need internet for the package becuase i dont have internet yet on suse…
Yes you need internet.
You can download the driver manually. But maybe you better wait, it complicated for a new user.
Just use failsafe for now when you boot.
Post the other info I asked for and we can help with access to your windows partition.
Post a new topic for setting up your internet if it’s a problem - wireless can be tricky.

Thx For ur Concern i found my windows partitions now i just have to figure out the nvidia driver…
If you get your internet working it should be easy just using the oneclick I gave you.
See how you get on with the internet and let us know.
FYI. I wasn’t getting stroppy with you before, I just couldn’t get a grip on what you were asking. lol!
