asus f3sv laptop & fedora 7 not installing

Hi,
I am a new user in forum. I am not goog in English speak. Excuse me...

I bought a new laptop as Asus f3sv. But i cannot fedora 7 on its.
I boot fedora 7 dvd's and I passed grub with enter. Then ;

No driver found:

Unable to find any devicess of the type needed for this installation type. Would you like to manually select your driver or use a driver disk.

At this time, I choose "Use a driver disk" and I choose Asusf3sv.bin on Driver Disk Source. But that is message occured:

There are multiple partitions on this device which could contain the driver disk image. Which you would you like to use?

???


Help...
Thanks.

I had the same problem with my Asus F3SC. I did the following:

1. Put the Fedora 7 image (iso file) on memory stick.
2. Connect the stick to an USB port
3. Run the Fedora 7 setup from your DVD (the same what you are doing now)
3. Then when the installer complains about the drivers, choose one of the options (do not remember it not - it is something like "Use disk" or something similar) and load the iso image from the memory stick by selecting the the deice which is probably sdb1 or sdc1.
4. Then wait a while, The installer should find the Fedora iso image on the memory stick and run the setup.
5. Continue to install your Fedora

If you have fat32 partition under windows copy iso image to hard disk and select source sdaX during install.

burn /images/boot.iso in to cdrom for booting.

i had a similar problem n my ASUS F3SC but once i had gotten it installed i only got terminal function and the user interface didn't start up. I believe it has something to do with Xorg not liking my graphics card but i dont no how to fix it.

Can someone please help me

P.S. Preferably no references to yum as i can't access the internet either.
