This page is overly long and poorly organized. Possible ideas for reorganizing:
* Split the Troubleshooting section off to a separate page
::Possible; that is the longest section, and the most likely to grow even further.  
* More radically, put each section on a subpage and make the main FAQ page a table of contents to those pages
::This will greatly increase the maintenance burden, as that page would have to be manually kept up-to-date.
* Create more subgroupings like the Graphics, Sound, and Networking sections; possibly Fonts and Input Devices
