Hello Everyone,
Since nothing has been figured out about this issue that I'm having yet, I 
thought I'd give you a lot more detail about my system:

Main System: SuperMicro SuperWorkstation SYS-5046A-XB
Motherboard: SuperMicro Super C7X58
ICPU: ntel(R) Xeon(R) QuadCore CPU E5504 2.00GHz
Memory: 8GB of RAM: Kingston ValueRAM 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333 
(PC3 10600) Dual Channel Kit
Video Card: nVidia GeForce 9600 GT (512MB of DDR2 memory on board.)

Like I've said elsewhere in this thread, the proprietary nVidia drivers from 
rpmfusion worked great on this same system under Fedora 12.  I even used the 
same instructions TRYING to get it to work under Fedora 13 that I used to 
SUCCESSFULLY get it working under Fedora 12.

Also, both my Fedora 12 and my current Fedora 13 installs were full installs 
from the DVD.  They were NOT upgrades, I completely wiped out the previous 
Fedora install.
