    Monitor trouble

    When I boot into linux my LCD comes up saying, "out of frequency" and shuts off. MY CRT doesnt do this, and I was wondering if it has to do with refresh rate or something else.

    CPU continually restarts

    When I boot up my PC it starts up, but then restarts for no apparent reason. I had it up earlier and it worked fine. The only thing I changed was the CPU and fan, but I dont think that should have done any harm. If anyone has any ideas, that would be awsome. Thanks

    CRT vs. LCD

    Wow I didnt realize they used that much more power. I guess I should switch to a LCD and save some energy. Using a multimeter isnt a bad idea either. Where would one obtain an item like that?

    CPU does not progress

    Well the cpu is an amd xp 2000+ and im not sure about the motherboard. It has a 256 ddr ram, a 40 gb hard drive, two cd rom drives, a floppy and a video card. I found out that the other video card I had in was faluty and would load. I know its not a mobo problem or cpu problem becuase it booted up.

    Fedora Core 5

    ok thats what I figured. Iso is already an image file, that is why I got confused. Also do you have to burn all 5 cds as an image, or can you just do this on the first cd?
