Looks like my problem was with the downloads. I would download a file 3
different times and get 3 different checksums :( Now I finally got one
that matches the checksums listed on the download site, and it appears
to be happily installing now.
Thank you all

I have personally always had the best luck by installing the Live CD, and then customizing the installation from there. This also gives you a quick way to test if the hardware you are installing to is compatible with the version of Centos that you're installing since the Live CD boots and comes up with a working desktop or it does not.
In fact and coincidentally, I just set up a Centos 6.8 image on VirtualBox last night using the Live CD with no issues.
