Do this: ATA is the IDE interface, where the disk drives are connected to, not the video card. If the problem relates to the hard drive, it might be quite a problem to resolve. If it's that it's having trouble reading the DVD drive, that might be worked around in other manners (e.g. not running the install from that disc, but over the network; or a copy of the DVD on a spare hard drive partition). -- (This box runs FC5, my others run FC4 & FC6, in case that's important to the thread.)
