Question [SOLVED] F17 Installation - White Screen with greyed out buttons

Hi,

I tried to install Fedora17 x64 on my Desktop with the LiveCD but it freezes at the menu where u can choose to either start the Live env or the installation.

Now I downloaded the netinstall CD and the Installation DVD. These to boot to the point where u have a grey-ish7white screen with the fedora logo in the upper left and the 2 greyed out buttons in the lower right and nothing happens.

Any ideas what goes wrong ?

The Box:
Intel i7, 8G DDR3 RAM, nVidia 580GTX, Intel SSD and several legacy HDDs. Machine is currently running Arch.

*edit* SOLVED: nVidia 580GTX known bug with nouveau drivers.

Can you make pictures of it? Even a poor photo of your monitor would help.
Otherwise, write down the text that is on the screen and type in back in here.

I can't remember what point of the installation that would be.
