Hello, It is as though something is trying to book in graphical mode but the resolution is up too high for my card. Where would I find that? TIA, Andoni. Background info: I have just installed FC3 on my system. Even though I installed the GNOME option it did not bring me to a desktop at all. I don't know if it should. Anyway, then I removed sendmail from the startup procedure using: chkconfig sendmail off Then I rebooted to see what effect this would have an now I have lost video altogether! It gets to the navy screen saying "booting Fedora 2.6.xxx in 3,2, 1" then the screen goes blank! I have changed the video card and no joy. I know it's working because I can login by typing (though I can't see it come up) root,password,halt. And the system goes down and I can hear the HDD stop. Now I have found that if, when I get the "Fedora" navy screen I go into the 'c' option I can type commands and when I escape out of this I can get to the login prompt in text mode.
