Hardware:

Motherboard: BIOSTAR TFORCE TF520-A2 AM2 NVIDIA nForce 520 MCP ATX AMD
Processor: AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+ Brisbane 2.2GHz Socket AM2 65W Dual-Core Processor
Video Card: MSI NX8400GS-TD256E GeForce 8400 GS 256MB 64-bit GDDR2 PCI Express
Memory: A-DATA 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel
Memory: A-DATA 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel
(6 GB total)
Hard drive: SAMSUNG EcoGreen F2 HD103SI 1TB 5400 RPM SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal
Power supply: RAIDMAX Blackstone series RX-700AC 700W Continuous Power ATX12V V2.3

I would like to end up with Fedora 13. Since I saw the same problems with both versions, I figured the version of Fedora was not the problem.

Do you know if the panic info gets saved somewhere? 

Thanks! Please keep the questions coming.

Andrew
