yes--try rebooting and look at the "Kernel choise Sreen"--first one to 
show on boot--it will give you a choise of which version of kernel to 
boot to. Some--not all however--grub loaders are setup to use the latest 
kernel, just make sure you read fast and use the arrow keys to select 
the latest kernel displayed, then hit the enter key. After booting and 
loging on--etc--go to (I use KDE gui) System Settings then boot 
configuration--make sure grub is setup to boot to the "latest" version 
of kernel (but make sure that this kernel WORKS ok with your particular 
setup for a day or so).  this help???  If you didn't load this 
particular "tool" when you installed Fedora Core 3--it is still possible 
to do the same from the grub boot screen---read fast--edit grub 
boot--etc................steve
