When I tried rebooting the machine, none of the kernels would work except for the oldest one.
Define “would not work”. Post a photo of the error message somewhere if you can’t describe it better than that. You might have to turn off rhgb mode to get a useful error message.
Here's a photo of the screen once the booting froze: http://www.brama.com/~deckard/P1010308.JPG
Here are the installed kernels:
kernel-2.6.32-504.23.4.el6.x86_64 kernel-2.6.32-573.3.1.el6.x86_64 kernel-2.6.32-573.7.1.el6.x86_64 kernel-2.6.32-573.8.1.el6.x86_64 kernel-2.6.32-573.12.1.el6.x86_64
Post the contents of /etc/grub.conf.
I removed most of the non-working kernels 2.6.32-573-*, except for the latest one; here's /etc/grub.conf
