I think my computer is actively trying to stop me from using 10.10
First thing I tried was to make a liveusb with the usbcreator.exe in windows. Each time I tried to boot the sequence would just freeze at the very first text line with the words "SYSLINUX Peter Alvin et al"
I tried this with two different USB drives and on a second computer. Both USB drives stopped at the same line but worked fine on the second computer.
Next I thought maybe my iso was corrupt, so I downloaded another and compared md5. Both iso's checked out with the MD5 I found on the ubuntu site.
I was trying to avoid wasting a disc but finally burned a 64bit desktop iso. While trying to boot I got this message

Thinking it was a USB issue I attempted to unplug all of my USB devices and force it to boot to the Desktop Environment. That yielded me this screen

Finally I try doing a check disc for errors which gets me this screen

I also tried installing via wubi which just got me to the USB error screens again.

If you need any other information please post here. Thanks in advance.
PS> I tried creating a liveusb of Backtrack4 and that booted fine.
