I just couldn't get Fedora 40 install disc to boot on my PC.  The disc
would spin up, start, then come to a halt with no way to go any
further.

In the end I used the server install, it used a different method of
booting up (I don't recall the details, just that it's not the same). 
Then installed a desktop, post-install.  I'll probably have to do the
same thing when I get around to updating it soon.

I don't do upgrades, either (referring to a latter post by you), it
becomes a major pain having to solve *lots* of problems.  And is far
more time-consuming, even if it goes right.  A fresh install may take
only 15 minutes, versus hours of upgrading.
