A few weeks ago, I tried installing FC3. However, the display was all screwed up once the graphical installer started. Essentially, the right quarter of the monitor was not being used and the bottom quarter was so distorted that I could neither see what was down there nor navigate any of the buttons. Mouse-clicking on the bottom quarter produced what appeared to be an inch and a half high cursor. Navigating by keyboard and by guess, I was able to proceed through the installation (without, I should mention, seeing a screen permitting me to select my monitor type). Once rebooted into FC3, the display problem persisted. Changing the hardware settings for the display to what worked fine in FC1 and FC2 (Generic LCD 1024-768 with 60Hz refresh rate) and rebooting did not solve the problem.
I've googled, checked numerous forums, read the FC3 release notes, etc., and have not been able to find an answer. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Here are some of my system specs (if further info is needed, just let me know, and sorry for the long text dump):
