Luckly in FC3 it used single processor kernel and if I remember correctly most of the hardware worked OK, I had issues with SMP kernel. At that time I ended up buiding my own SMP kernel.

What video driver is it trying to use? It sounds like it is using
the VESA or VGA drivers. Someone else will have to tell you the
correct driver for that card, and then you can check to see if you
have it installed.

In FC5 I think it used SMP for insstall (that was only kernel after booting up in FC5).
The best way is to reinstall FC5 and tell it to use non-SMP.
Is there an option to tell installer to use non-SMP ? any other suggestions ?
