May be a hardware issue. I have installed windows many times. About a month ago my monitor burned out so i got a new one. I currently have Fedora 5 on my box. Now when i try to install windows i am taken through the first few steps. I confirm i want to install windows. The Monitor Reads "Setup is Inspecting Your Configuration". Then the screen goes blank. That's it nothing else. Can someone help with this?

It may be that your monitor does not support the display mode it changes to. Its unusual but not uncommon as I have a friend with similar problems.

Try borrowing a monitor from a friend and see if that works.

The Inquisitor. thank you. Ihave tried that. The results are the same.I have 2 computers. I have had the new monitor connected to both computers. 2 monitors and 2 windows install discs. Results are the same no matter how you mix them.

Also I'm going to say drivers, or lack thereof.
