does sound like you have hardware problems.

have you tried f10 live cd?

if it works, that is, you boot to a desktop and all is well, install
it to hard drive and run your updates.

i do suggest that before you run updates, install only yumex and
yum-utilities first.

them go thru what was loaded from cd and remove what you do not want
on your system.

i had problems with an f10 install due to video card and was able to
use live cd and get a now working system.
