If reboot boot the 7.3 kernel 3.10.0-514.26.2.el7.x86_64 kernel
everything works just fine, so my guess is that there's a kernel
issue
with the hardware, specifically the Skylake processor.
Has anyone else run into this problem and if so can how I resolve
the
problem other than using the previous kernel?

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Pete and others,
I am still having some 7.4 problems. I just finished a fresh install
of 7.4 on an ASUS motherboard of which Centos now does not recognize
the video monitor. I was required to do a 'Basic Graphic' install
instead of a full graphic install with the new 7.4 iso. After a
successful install I tried to change the resolution of the screen
display but Centos was unable to do so because it did not recognize the
monitor. This was not a problem with 7.3.
The Mother board is :
Manufacturer: ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC.
Product Name: B150M-A/M.2
Version: Rev X.0x
The CPU is :
Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-6600K CPU @ 3.50GHz
It does not appear that Centos is recognizing the capability of the
mother board. Does anyone have ideas as to a solution for this. I am
not certain even buying a video card would make a difference.
Pete... what card did you purchase that worked???
Greg
Greg,
Look although you are using a different mobo, you are experiencing the
same problems that I ran into. At one point I managed to get a
graphical display but at the resolution was extremely low 800x640 I
believe, and no way to change it because it didn't look like the kernel
recognized the monitor at all.
I just took a stab at a card figuring that no one else seemed to be
having issues. I don't do anything graphically intensive so I just
looked for what I thought was a good deal , and this card looked like a
good deal, with a $10 rebate
