Hi,

I think all that hardware will be supported in RH 7.3 and 8.0, except for the winmodem, that may or not be supported. If the monitor isn't supported, just note its specs (resolution, refresh rates etc.) and configure it manually during setup. It will work, all I'm saying is that you might not have an option to choose Dell D825TM during setup, so you'll have to enter its specs manually. HTH
