Which version to install?

I have;
AMD PhenomII X4 920 2.8GhZ
Gigabyte MA790X-UD4P
2x2gb OCZ 1066 MhZ Memory
ATI Radeon HD4850 1gb (XFX)

Which distro for me to use, and if possible a name of the site I should search it from?

I tried Kalyway 1.5.2 but it says press a key to boot from cd but when i do, it restarts...

Thanks in advance.

Try swapping out your IDE optical drive for a sata or use a IDE-> SATA converter. Alternatively, try Lawless 10.5.4; it's the only install I could get working from the internal drive (my system is similar to yours).

That having been said, I could never get the Netkas Radeon 4850 drivers to work with Lawless; ended up installing iDeneb off a USB dvd drive and its all good now.
