Very major video issues, and sometimes the whole system crashes

I installed Fedora Core 3 on my friend's computer (with his permission), and 
for some reason the video doesn't refresh right; like when I start up 
Firefox I'll see the outer borders but I'll only see other parts of whats in 
the window if when the mouse hovers over it, and it changes a bit.  Right 
now its set to the default setup (GNOME for interface and Xorg for an X 
Server, no extra software that doesn't come with the distro and no updates). 
  If it helps at all, I will list some of my hardware:

Processor: Intel Celeron 1400 MHz
Memory: 256MB SDRAM 133MHz FSB
Video: Intel(R) 82810 (embedded, I think)

I was able to find out this info because the computer also has functioning 
Windows XP on it, and I used HWiNFO32 to detect hardware.  I would like to 
figure this out so my friend can have a working Linux installation, and 
after I'm done doing this certain testing I'm doing it'll only have Fedora 
Core 3.
