First RH 7.2 is extremely old, unsupported, and has vulnerabilities
such that you do NOT want to put it anywhere exposed to the Internet.
You should download and install some Fedora Core version 4 or later
(FC7 is current), or buy RedHat ES 4 or 5 if you will be running a
commercial operation and need some hand-holding.  That said, there are
plenty of us running FC* in a commecial environment.

As to your problem, unless you are running equally antique hardware,
RH7.2 probably does not have adequate drivers for the video card.  If
you insist on pursuing 7.2, see
