    Graphics Card and Monitor.
    install in Text Mode and set/configure display settings after installations.

    at boot: prompt type 'linux text' and install FC. after installation, login as 'root' and execute this
    Code:
    system-config-display
    configure display settings and type 'startx' to launch GUI.

    ooops ! my mistake.. i thought your thread is in Fedora Forum. FC is Fedora Core.
