 Brian,
There is a kernel bug that seems to affect systems with older Intel processors.  I have a Dell Laptop that on bootup of kernel 2.6.32-754.3.5.el6.x86_64 will display a white square in the upper left corner of the screen and halt.  If I roll back to the 2.6.32-696.30.1.el6.x86_64 version kernel all is well.

 Hello,

Ever since I updated my CentOS 6 machine from 6.9 to 6.10 Xorg will not
start with the 2.6.32-754 kernels. Instead the computer will reboot. This
issue does not exist with the 2.6.32-696.30.1 kernel from CentOS 6.9 that I
still have on my system.

Has anyone else encountered this issue, and if so, how did you rectify it?

Thank you for any help.

Brian Bernard
