A weird problem

[Shlomi Shalem]

Good morning all, While I was trying to install Fedora Core on my laptop (Compaq Evo N800v), I ran into a weird problem: When I boot the installation program directly from the CD, it works perfectly (detects my hardware smoothly and shows me *NO* error messages during the whole configuration process). After I give it the order to begin installing, it reformats my partitions, copies the installation image to the HD and then - "Preparing for installation". In the middle of the last action, my computer just turns off! Without any message or known reason. This problem repeats itself unless I choose "Minimal Installation". What is the problem? Please help me, this problem is driving me crazy...:)   Thanks, Shlomi.
