problem with xp and fedora(linux)

I have a comp.
The configuration is as follows
Intel core2duo
Intel 945 chip set motherboard
I have a dual boot system with Xp and Fedora9
The problem is that in Xp whenever I try to boot it boots ,showing the boot screen and the display goes blank.I tried even in safe mode,vga mode ,debugging mode but the same result.
In fedora the user login screen appears but after logging in it hangs.

I have even set the bios to the default mode

edit boot.ini of XP to correct .

I can't even see the display after booting.

that means both of your OSs are not getting loaded..rite.....you have got this problem recently or you have made a fresh installation and facing this problem??

They are getting loaded but the display is not shown i.e after booting in safe mode the safe mode the safe mode message appears in all the 4 sides but no display
The same in normal mode only a blank screen appears.

strange problem never heard of it..displaying on the sides..the above person's question still stands..are these fresh installs??try using a linux live cd and check if it runs..if it does...try installing the os again..

I got my problem solved by reinstalling xp.
But still that is not the solution.
Even my friends comp has got the same problem.He has only windows xp.
He does'nt want to format it .Can anyone help.
