Cant logon my fedora8, the login screen stops and ever goes on...


Here is the thing, i Got Fedora 8 DVD i586 downloaded from the official site, hve installed it and everithing was OK, but one day (not far from the day I installed) I turned on the computer and on the start screen it stops, i mean the only thing I see is the mouse arrow with the lil blue thig arround it, and i whaited to see if it was doing anything but nothig, i can only logon in command line mode by pressing the ctrl+f1 combination, I think that the problem is with the video settings, but sence im new at Fedora (at linux u might say), i whana know hoy to fix this problem.

Thank you for you aswer if there's any

Delete (rename) /etc/X11/xorg.conf and then reboot to see if that helps.
