Fresh install cant start x server. Intel 8xx

I recently tied to install Fedora 8 on my Dell laptop. It went fine then said coudn't start x server then went to text mode. I thought the intel drivers were supposed to be supported on this. Please help I really want to get rid of Windows on this machine.

I noticed that someone had posted almost the exact same thing earlier but it was with the nvidia driver.
