    Fedora installer graphics error

    I am sure this has been answered before but I have not been able to find it.

    I just downloaded the Fedora 11 live CD and when I tried to boot it then graphics were all messed up. I know the reason is because I have an ATI graphics card which has issues with the default graphics driver. I was wondering if somebody could tell me how to change it so I can get to the graphical installer.

    If somebody could help me out or point me in the right direction I would appreciate it.

    Thanks for the help!

    Choose the following option in the boot menu that provided by official fedora site.

    Install system with basic video driver
    This option allows you to install Fedora in graphical mode even if the installation program is unable to load the correct driver for your video card. If your screen appears distorted or goes blank when using the the Install or upgrade an existing system option, restart your computer and try this option instead.
