Hi Keith,

That's really strange ! I own the same motherboard, which I use as a
development system, and FC5 installs and works fine. What is the BSOD
you are seeing? Could it have something to do with the CD media, rather
than the motherboard? 

I think installing windows would be a good idea to remove the
possibility that it could be a hardware problem. But I would not update
the BIOS just yet.
