    I downloaded and tested the cds for Fedora 3.

    When I do an initial install on my test computer, the graphics go
    haywire when I get to the point where I want to choose the software to
    install. Portions of the graphics don't show at all. Old portions of
    the graphics do not disappear. I reach the state where I can't proceed.

    I have downloaded and recorded the first of the cds a couple of times.
    Both copies ran through the tests on the test computer prior to the
    attempt to install.

    The test computer has run Fedora 2, RH 3 EL, RH2.1 EL and RH WS 3
    without problems.
    It is a Dell Optiplex GX 110.

    I maintain a dozen systems that run Fedora and about that many running
    the RH Enterprise systems.

    Is there a fix?
