At the Grub screen, when you choose Linux, then hit e
That will let you edit it--you'll then see the lines in Grub referring to 
your Linux install. At the end of the line that begins
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.7 ro root=/dev/hdaX  (It will be similar to 
that--that X will be a number) you can do control E which will take you to 
the end of the line--then add the apm=off acpi=off to the end of that 
line.  Hit return, then hit b and it should boot.
