What happens when you try to install it? Can you run the live cd desktop ok?

What is happening when you try to install it? Does it fail at a particular point? Have you checked the MD5SUM of the downloaded iso?

When runing the live cd, did you check the cd for errors?

You're welcome.
Also, as it's a Toshiba, it may be worth finding out if there is a bios update for your machine. This can solve some problems.
