When I install, all seems to work until I get to 58%. The install progress just says 58% and I have left it run for a long time and it just ends up not doing anything. The status said "Copying Files".
I have done an md5 on the iso that I burned and it matched. I have also check my disk and memory for errors, none were found. I am using 9.04, just downloaded it yesterday.
I have googled for this but it did not yield anything promising.

If I were you I would try a new disc. You can also try the "alternate" cd.
Good luck!
peace

Do you think it could be due to the speed at which I burned the image?

Possibly.
Burn a new disk, at the lowest possible speed, and, before burning, MD5 the .iso, and then, "Check the CD for defects".

Well, I burned a new disc at 1x after checking the md5 which checked out good like the last one and I got to 62%, lol.
It then gave me an error which basicly said I the hardware was faulty. I hadn't really used the dvd drive for much of anything so i figured it had dust and swapped it for a better dvd drive. This drive worked a ton better but I got a heat issue because the side of my case was no on (the side that was off has 2 fans and 1 manifold). After fix all the hardware issues it installed smoothly.
Everything is working great atm and im actually Idling about 15 degrees(celcius) cooler than I did when idling with winblows.
Thanks to everyone for the help =)
