Went to do a fresh install of 12.10 on my e-Machines (Acer) laptop via DVD, and it gets to the wireless setup point and just hangs. Won't go any further.

Burn another copy....same thing!

OK....let's try Xubuntu 12.10.....and exactly the same thing! At the same point.

Short of the DVD drive malfunctioning (and I don't think it is) I'm stumped! Every other one I've used from 8.04 on has gone straight in.

Any ideas guys?

Thanks for that.....I'll monitor that one, but in my case I don't even get as far as the webcam section.
