I've heard multiple simillar problems from people with newer processors
and the solution for them was to use the text install, rather than
graphical. You may want to try that. The graphical install and
upgrading from Fedora 6 were the two major problems for fedora 7 not
working that I could find. Couldn't hurt; hope it works for you, I know
how troubling kernel problems can be.

Hey Gilbert,
Can you give any more info on how you installed Fedora? For example,
are you running the install off media (CD) or alternate means? What
installation type are you using? I'm assuming since it's a new
machine, you directly installed Fedora 7, as opposed to upgrading
from any previous versions, correct? etc.
Yep, I wiped the hard drive clean, and installed from DVD. Did a
graphical install. Worked on my P4 machines with no problem.
I believe the problem is with how you installed Fedora 7, which is a
common problem, as opposed to hardware related issues.
Thanks,
Chris
I used the same DVD to install F7 on the slower machines, and the same
graphical interface.
