I don't think that this is the issue as I have a Nvidia 6600GT and FC6 supports it just fine. It could be that your machines power management is interfering with the install process 'somehow', what usually works best "as I too with my card have had such a problem" is when your distroe boots up and lists a number of options before you hit enter to install, try first to install the system on text mode = linux text, if this still has issues try: linux noapic acpi=off or just linux noapic. This has usually worked just fine with me on more than just one series of Nvidia cards. On 30/05/07, V@ly <valy.tgv@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:
