I suspect that rhgb (red hat graphical boot) is the issue.

Boot to a rescue CD, do the chroot, edit /etc/grub.conf, or 
/mnt/sysimage/boot/grub/grub.conf if ya don't wanna do the chroot thing.

Remove the rhgb (delete the word) from the kernel (the only place it 
exists is the kernel line, so just search for rhgb and remove that word).

exit rescue gracefully and all should be well the next time you boot up.

There are still several video cards that just simply do not like the 
graphical boot.

Good Luck!
