Let's start from something simple. If I got you right, you have burnt a CD image to DVD media? If that's guess is correct, try to record CD image to CD media. If I got you wrong and you have tried to boot from recorded CD-R, here is another option: are you sure that CD is properly recorded and have a quality enough to be read by your DVD-ROM device? Maybe there are some mechanical errors at the CD-R itself due to unsuccessful recording and that preventing the disc from a proper reading? Have you tried to boot from that recorded CD-R somewhere else? Locate another computer and repeat a boot stage. Don't start the install process, just try to boot into debian-installer. If you face a failure, re-record CD-R at lower speed. Try to record Debian ISO at the lowest possible speed which is supported by your burner.
