I was using my TV on the S-Video Out.  It wasn't happy.  I connected my
monitor to one of the DVI ports and the world became a happy place.  I
got the install done from the DVD install disk.

Now the configuration battle starts.  First I have to install the Nvidia
drivers so that my Folding At Home application will use the 64 CUDA
cores on my video card.  Then I have to figure out how to get all the
applications I have on my 32 bit CentOS 6.6 system to run on the new 64
bit CentOS 6.6 platform.  I know it should be easy but past experience
has shown that it probably won't be.
