Yeaaaah...when I installed the Nvidia drivers on my FC2 system it stopped
booting.  I'm real happy about that BTW.  NVidia says they'll have new drivers
out RSN.*
And yes I like Core 2 very much as well...I just wish they didn't have to kill
my 3d drivers.

*RSN=Real Soon Now=slightly slower than ASAP
