Couldn't say, without more info on the peecee. Make, model would help. 
Also, the final messages.

Since you have the problem with f8test3, then the fedora-test is a good 
place to talk about it, and if you're really really quick you might get 
a usable bug report in in time for it to be fixed before the ISOs go out 
RSN.

Probably.

We've not established the one you have doesn't work yet. Try the 
fedora-test list, and give clear info about what hardware you have, in 
case someone wants to buy a computer just like yours. (They won't, but 
likely someone has one).

Oh, not test messages, okay? Subscribe if you need, compose your email 
and send it. You'll see if it goes, and it's in your sent folder in case 
you need to try again.
