Oh jeez, heres the part which makes me look like an idiot! XD

I'm using an Intel Pentium III processor, 930MHz, with 192mb of RAM. I'm 
not sure on motherboard, how could I find that out? This is a pretty old 
computer, though probably the only part that old is the case.

I'm installing FC3 on a second hard-drive (as not to interfere with my 
Windows installation). When I run the install, I check "Remove all 
partitions", so I haven't set anything up in advance.

I'm installing FC3 i386, do you want the build number? I don't know how 
to find that either... *looks embarrassed*

Sorry if I didn't explain everything, I'm slow today, so just keep 
asking and I'll tell you ;-)

Thanks,
Thomas Riggs
