Just got two new Optiplex 745 and on both machines when I installed Novell client 4.91 SP3, after the restart there was no video output, just a black screen. The machines seem to cycle fine with the hard drive light blinking on and off appropriately but nothing on the screen. When I restart in Safe Mode I get video output no problem. When I remove the Novell client all goes back to normal. Anyone else seen this behavior and know of a fix? Thanks.

Reinstall the client using the custom mode, when you get the screen with 3 checkboxes - one of which is NMAS, uncheck all 3 boxes. This is a known issue with the 4.9X series of clients if you are not on a NMAS network.
