Seems like its some problem with Dual Core CPUs, I did some Google Searching.

This is what I found.

So Try adding maxcpus=0 to Boot Options (in the CD Boot Menu) and see if it works.

He meant that enter the "maxcpus=0" at the boot command line which appears when you boot the DVD. The place where it asks you to Press Enter to start or enter linux and press enter to begin etc. The first boot screen
