Comments:
With RH6.2, the audio didnt work even with ALSA drivers built into kernel and the Xserver identified only 1MB Video RAM instead of 8MB. The display was limited to 800x600*256colors*60Hz. The display problem was bcoz of BIOS which was solved by BIOS Flashing.

With RH7.3, every thing was going laminar, untill recently the system got corrupted because of poor installation media (I think) so currently I am looking for a reliable installation media.
