A new user trying to install linux

I'm new so this is a little basic I'm afraid.

I downloaded Red hat 7.1 from a mirror server.  I created the CD's.  I
downloaded the boot disk for dec-talk express for red hat 7.0 as this was
the latest on the site.  When I boot my machine and type text, it boots but
there is silence.  My dec-talk is connected to com1.  The only explanation I
can think of is that I am trying to install 7.1, therefore I might have the
wrong kernel.  I could use a little help in finding out what I'm doing wrong
or how I get the right kernel.  I know the machine is booting up in text
mode as I had my sighted wife take a look.
