There is a newer installer here that should install on problematic Skylake machines: http://buildlogs.centos.org/centos/7/isos/x86_64/ The isos are: CentOS-7-x86_64-DVD-1602-99.iso CentOS-7-x86_64-Minimal-1602-99.iso If people are having issues with those ISOs we can make others. In fact, Brian Stinson may have an installer that uses the 4.4.x kernel for IoT boards, which we might be able to share if there are major issues that can't be solved with the above ISOs.
