I've not experienced a blue screen during any of my installs of Red Hat, or any of the other ones either. My first instinct is that your video card may not be supported. I would first start by checking Red Hat's HCL http://hardware.redhat.com/hcl/?pagename=hcl .
I'm still a newb with linux though so that's the only thing I can think of. Anyone else have any ideas?
Hi.
I found the error. It was a problem with my USB mouse, RedHat installation process that not support USB port so I installed it with "linux nousb". After installation process I configured my USB mouse correctly.

I like installing XOSL (www.xosl.org) onto my MBR, then putting lilo into the / partition (the partition containing the linux os). Install windows first, then xosl, then linux. Works flawless for me, without the headache.
