CentOS 6 GRUB Stopped Loading Latest Kernel Successfully

[Guest janoble]

I have an old Dell Dimension 2400 with 1GB of memory running CentOS 6.5. The last few times I've updated the kernel the newer versions don't seem to load successfully. The system seems to boot and then screens goes black. Since Grub seems to be only keeping the last five (5) kernel versions I'm running out of options. Here are the versions:

 

CENTOS (2.6.32-431.17.1.e16.i686) <-- NEW Doesn't Work

CENTOS (2.6.32-431.5.1.e16.i686) <-- Doesn't Work

CENTOS (2.6.32-431.1.2.0.1.e16.i686) <-- Doesn't Work

CENTOS (2.6.32-358.23.2.e16.i686) <-- Boots successfully

CENTOS (2.6.32-358.18.1.e16.i686) <-- Boots successfully

CENTOS (2.6.32-358.14.1.e16.i686) <-- GONE Now

 

What happened between 2.6.32-358 and 2.6.32-431? How can I get these newer versions of the kernel to boot?

 

I have attached my grub.conf (as .txt) file, in case there is a clue there.
