No joy in mudville.  Still had the files downloaded by bit torrent and I burned a new disk 1 using ISO and the orginial file.  Still does not work and I get the same error message.

I think the problem has been found.  I burned them as data so I will burn them as ISO files and let you know how it turns out.  Knew it had to be something I done.  

Thanks everyone.....

Totally new to Linux and am trying to install Fedora on a computer with 
a blank HDD.  I put disk one in the CD and changed the boot order 
putting the CD Rom first.  

The following error message is displayed after the CD appears to be checked.

Reboot and select proper boot device
or insert boot media in selectefd boot device.

The CD passed the checksum  so I am assuming that it is OK but don't 
have a clue where to go now.  I know something is wrong but what.

Help would be more than appreciated.

Thanks
    

Welcome aboard!

Most likely you need to configure your bios to boot from the CDrom
drive.  

The next most likely problem is that when you burned the CDs you did not
burn them as images.  In you CD burner software there should be an
option to burn the CD as an iso or image, then select the iso file you
downloaded.  This will burn a bootable CD.  If you just burned the iso
as data to the CD that will not work.

My money is on the bios settings.
