Hmm,
Based on your situation here, I'd say here's where I'd start.
First, check the MD5 on your original download.
Second, burn it slower, see if that helps. Bet the CD is the issue.
This is before the kernel even starts or anything really happens so
it's not neccesarily a hardware issue.
However, secondly check what main chipset you have (and if it's
supported) *AND* write down here on the board what DVDROM/HDD combo
your using.
Sata drive? IDE drive?, SATA DVD? IDE DVD?
Lets go from there.
