What are the names of the images that you downloaded? What version of Fedora did you download?
 
Did you burn the disks as iso images, or just data disks? If you open the first installation disk's contents, what do you see, one iso file image, or a bunch of directories and files on the disk?
 
See my guide here.
 
Or, did you follow the directions on the Fedora Installation Guide?
