F10 install problems

[Michael Klinosky]

Hello.
I was subscribed here back in the F8 days - had to take a break for a while.

Well, I dl'ed F10 dvd, netinst, and Live. I tried to boot the netinst in 
a somewhat dated box (no dvd drive), but got only a blank screen. I then 
tried the Live disk - same thing.

I had already verified the burns. So, I tried both on a newer box - both 
good.

They *seem* to boot for a few seconds, then stop (no CD drive activity). 
I tried hitting various keys - nothing. Perhaps it's interesting that 
there is a blue-ish line at the top of the screen, about 1/3 the width 
of the screen and maybe 10 pixels vertically.

I searched the fedoraproject site - didn't see anything about install 
problems.

What's wrong? (Display hw too old?) What can I do to get either to boot?
