FC4 DVD does not boot upon installation

[prophotodx]

I am attempting to install FC4 on a new server, When I put in the FC4 DVD it does not boot into the graphic install. I have also tried downloading the CD versions, and it does the same thing. Any ideas?

When you say, "Does not boot into the graphic install", do you mean that your computer will not boot off the DVD; or that it boots, but to a command-line interface rather than a GUI; or something else?

It will boot to give me the choice of how I want to install, I hit enter to go into the graphic install menu. From there it starts to enter, and then freezes with a bunch of jargon on the screen.

It sounds to me like Fedora doesn't recognize your graphic hardware. I recommend that you install using the text system. It's a server, so you're not going to install a GUI anyway....

Fedora'll put instructions for entering the install in text mode.
