You have the CDs for a 64-bit processor. Is your PC equipped with an AMD Athlon 64 or Opteron? 2. Did you properly burn the CDs? You need to create a CD from a image file. You can examine the list archives for proper creation instructions. My short instruction is "Double-click on each .iso file and let your CD burner application take control". If you do not have file association working, just right-click the .iso file, select "open with" and choose the CD burner application. 3. Why are you using an outdated distribution? The current release is Fedora Core 3 (Heidelberg). Get the latest from http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/3/i386/iso/ or http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/3/x86_64/iso/ if you actually have a 64-bit processor.
