Ubuntu Installation on New PC is Stuck!

[MiniIrv]

Hi people.

I started to install Ubuntu 11.10 today, got the the screen where it asked me to type my name, password, and username, etc in and then a message came up saying installation failed and had to end because i had apparently written the ISO to CD too fast. So i thought okay, and burnt it to another CD at a slower write spead, put it back in my optical drive to start the process again and no it just wont boot. Stuck on the 'Loading Operating System...' Screen :|

I dont know what to do, because i'm new to Linux, and building PC's for that matter, its my first build. Hope you lot can help :)

If you are looking for speed, try installing Ubuntu from a USB Flash Drive or USB Pendrive instead.

How long has it been?

While installing it is updating at the same time and this takes quite a while.

Are you connected to the internet?

No i wasnt connected the internet and it wasn't updating, it failed and said the ISO was written to CD to fast. So i re-burnt it and now it wont work.
