ok the next thing to try might be to....

su
yum groupinstall "Basic X Window System"

then see if you can startx

after that if you have success you may want to install a desktop environment 
of your choice...

su
yum groupinstall "GNOME Desktop"

or....

su
yum groupinstall "KDE Plasma Workspaces"

to get a list of available group do....

yum grouplist

I hope that helps
