When you boot the live cd, there is a little picture of a guy in a circle (gnome's accessibility icon) with an equal sign and a keyboard. Hit some key on the keyboard when you see this. You select a language, and then there is a menu.
At the bottom of the screen, there is a list of things you can do with f keys. The one on the bottom right has several boot options you change. I'd suggest starting with `nomodeset`. `acpi=off` can also be the ticket sometimes. Let us know if you get any farther with that.
I don't really know your hardware, and it might help you to do a google search for 'le 1700 linux' or something like that. Whatever the problem is, you are not the first to have it. Keep us posted on anything you find.
