RH7.3 to FC4 Upgrade


Ok so far I have been successfull at getting RH7.3 on a computer at work now I have come acros another problem. I am trying to whipe RH off the system and get FC4 on it. I have original disks that I have received from school. When I try to install FC4 it gets so far (when the "X" shaped cursor pops up) and the whole screen goes white. I can let it sit there forever and nothing else happens. It will still do this even in text mode. What gives? Is there anyway for me to get FC4 on here or am I doomed? I am downloading FC5 and 6 but those will take sometime to finish. So what are my options? Whats the problem?

Thank you all for the help.

Well I will keep a look out for any issues. I am currently on disk 2 of the installation which was done is being done in text mode. I guess for some reason it decided to work. the system is a pentium celeron 533Mhz OCed to 600, 128MB ram and 12GB HD system. Thank you for the help
