If you've confirmed that the file downloaded correctly and there are no problems burning to the disc then it might be a hardware conflict. In that case I would try the alternate install disc instead.

i checked for errors as well. and no the live boot doesnt work either. i finally got it to install in windows. but when i restarted my comp to boot it i get the dual boot screen. i choose ubuntu and it does the same thing
