------------------------
Let me state I have tried several bug fixes online to
no avail that were posted on differenct sites
for FC1-FC4 builds.
Hardware:
An inpiron 3500 laptop
NeoMagic MagicMedia 256AV card
256MB memory
20GB hard drive
3COM 3CCFE575CT-B
I installed FC4 and the following problems occured
Sound card ad1484 could not be found.
Fonts are blurry
No resultion above 800x600 even though it is capable
of 1024x768
I have done 5 clean installations with 5 different
solutions tried for the different problems. I have
placed the links below. I actually did one more clean
install hopefully to prepare the laptop for an answer.
