REPOST: Installation worked from hard-disk, now X-Windows trouble

Actually I did not upgrade to FC2. I chose FC1 cause I'm new to Linux and I
thought FC1 would be more stable?

Do I need to upgrade to FC2, or should I just try to fix my X problem?

My videocard as Windows recognizes it is Intel(R) 82865G Graphics Controller
with 64MB of Memory. The monitor is recognized by Windows as a "Plug and
Play monitor", not very useful.

XFree86 ?
Did you an upgrade from FC1 to FC2 ? XFree86 is gone - Xorg is the
replacement.
Maybe these message will help:
