Can the blank (but not frozen) screen be due to the resolution that is picked?
(II) RADEON(0): Output VGA-0 using initial mode 1440x900

All similar symptoms reported has been AGP trouble. Your case is also failing with PCI, so I don't really know. Or maybe you have two issues, one with the monitor/blank screen, and another with AGP freezing up. Any chance you can try another monitor?
