I have a brand new dell precision T1500.<br>
Fedora 12 live CD fails<br>
Fedora 13 DVD fails and "sleeps forever."<br>
Fedora 13 live CD installed once but failed when I tried to<br>
reinstall after losing network.<br>
<br>
After formatting (using defaults) all seems to be going well<br>
when I get<br>
"An unhanded exception has occured. This is likely a bug ..."<br>
<br>
I saved the error ... somewhere ... in a place on the live CD<br>
I can not find.<br>
<br>
Any help would be welcomed.<br>

F12 before POST completes and select diagnostics from menu. Takes about 10-15 minutes, quick hardware check. Maybe try other distro like ubuntu or centos, at least would tell you if its fedora specific bug. <br></div></div>
