And you shouldn't write the subject in caps. This is bad style

>     I have a DELL-8400 Series PC with SATA drive and I dual booted it with winxp-prof and FedoraCore2 , there was and still a problem with the sata drive not getting recognised by FC2, i have overcome this by changing the settings in bios (i need to do this everytime i boot!), also while booting it says Unrecognised board/chipset, but the real problem is that when i try to connect to the internet, i get an error message that my device is not recognised. From the start-> system-> Network connection, i selected the eth0 and the device type as Intel Gigabit 1000.

You seem to have internet somehow as you can post here. So get the
latest FC2 kernel - just today kernel-2.6.10-1.770_FC2 came out - with
the system being online and burn it to CD. Then run a kernel update with
FC2. This should help as there are many kernel based improvements since
inital 2.6.5 of FC2.

You will have to deactivate this if enabled.
