to load on my Epia Via C3 motherboard. I get "no screens found".

You need to select trident-accell and deselect viacle-accell package when installing for older Via C3 boards.
You can also fix the error by running startx -- -configure and use the newly generated config file to replace the
previous /etc/X11/xorg.conf.
The best way is to install the trident accell package which will also put the xorg.conf needed for your board.

I am also getting "No Screens Found" when trying to run startx using imedia 5.0 (full, purchased) and an MSI Fuzzy CX700 board. According to the 5.0 changelog, the drivers are supposed to support the CX700 chipset. If I run startx --configure I can get X to start but using the vesa driver and my video performance is terrible. Is there any driver I have to load to support the CX700?

Thanks for any help.

CX700 support is in beta stages as the card is pretty new. Can you do a nbcat /var/log/Xorg.log.0 > Xorg.log and send me this file ?
Also make sure you have installed viacle266-3d-mpeg-accell package. The driver should provide 2d acceleration and XV.
