This has happened on 4 separate discs... If it's not the LiveDisc and I've already repaired all the registry on my machine, what else could it be?

    Do you think that the burnspeed will help all that much? or should I try wiping the HDD and doing a fresh install? I have accomplished ubuntu installation this way before...
