Unhappy Problem in Fedora 10


Hello friends i am facing one problem in fedora 10. I have downloaded fedora 10 iso image from its official site. During installation my system hangs. so i have to reformat linux partition and also have to reinstall fedora 10. Now also after running for 10-15 minutes or even in 2 min my system hangs in fedora 10. I have also tried live gnome cd of fedora but no use. But my windows xp runs smoothly also earlier before installing fedora 10 i was using fedora 9 which also runs smoothly . I have also tried
1.installing Fedora 9 then upgrading to Fedora 10 but porblem persists
2.Installing ATI Driver downloaded from ati site.
3.Deleting linux partition(both / and swap) formatting in NTFS then running chkdsk to see for bad sectors but report was fine. Then installing Fedora 10 on that partition.
But now also problem persists.please tell me how can i solve this problem of system hanging in fedora also if there are updates please tell me url of that update which can solve this problem. Thanks in advance.

The trouble is located in f10 - if I read you correctly, each attempt to install f10 used the same DVD: reburn the image at a slower speed and reinstall.

Did you check the image for defects?
Did you check the DVD for defects?

OK: which graphics card and why do you suspect that the driver is the issue?

Did you try not using a RW DVD? (Or totally virgin RW DVD?)
Did you try using a different DVD writer?
Have you tried using the driver from livna repositories?
(You can browse to it, download the rpm, and install manually.)
