Hi Clive, > So the DVD is a good one so why does it not work on the laptop, which > it the same drive it was burned on?
Only thing I can think of, given the DVD starts OK and you get the menu offering Mint to boot, is to edit its kernel command line and remove `splash' and `quiet' as I said before. At least there might be text on the screen when it stops doing anything and that could give a clue.
