FWIW, I've never seen a "no more MTRRs available" message, but the
boot messages are normal.

You should probably have a doc file on MTRR on your system, take
a look at:

/usr/share/doc/kernel-doc-2.4.18/mtrr.txt

or whatever your kernel version is.  If you have RH 7.3 right off the
CD, it's probably lower.

Googling turns up a few discussions.  Do you have a Via Rhine NIC?
A kernel update (probably just RH kernel via up2date) may be useful,
also get the latest X packages.
