    Fedora 15 live cd start up problem

    Hi,

    I just downloaded fedora 15 64bit and burned it on a cd. When I try to start my operating system from the cd, my laptop (Dell, L702x) I see the fedora screen and the bubble that is filled up, however, at some point I get an error message (similar to MS DOS writing). Does anybody know advise how to get the cd run on my laptop?
    Thanks

    Best,
    Alex

    Can you post the contents of the error message?

    If it's a video problem, you can try adding this to the boot prompt (at the grub menu when you first boot the PC):
    Code:
    vga=normal nomodeset
