Hi all,

I've downloaded the 9.04 Desktop edition and burnt it to a DVD and restarted the computer.

It loads up the DVD and after choosing the language I get the screen "Try Ubuntu without any change to your computer", "Install Ubuntu", etc.. here's the problem I can't select anything from this menu. Pushing enter does absolutely nothing I can move up and down in the list and I can select "Boot from first hard disk" fine so it's not the enter key playing up on my keyboard ;)

Any ideas? I've tried re-burning the disc and even tried opening it up in Virtual Box only to have the exact same problem. Any help is really appreciated I want to get back into Ubuntu ;)

Update:
I found the problem... the download had completed but for some reason only download 300 or so MB that explains why it wasn't working! Feel free to delete the thread as I couldn't see how to.
