You don't edit configuration files until you have installed Fedora.

The full path to the file is "/etc/xorg.conf". First type the 
command "cp /etc/xorg.conf /etc/xorg.conf.backup" to save a copy of the 
original file in case you need to change it back. Then 
type "nano /etc/xorg.conf" to edit it. If Nano is missing, install it with 
the command "yum install nano". But first get through the installation.

As for what changes you should do to xorg.conf, I'll let Mike answer that.
