Did you ever get a chance to try if the CD would load on a different system to see if you can boot up from it ?
There are some motherboards that have poor and even broken cd boot capabilities. I have doubled tested with the same iso image that you download from my website to make sure that it was not a bad iso image and it loads just fine on the 2 systems I tested it on. If you want send me your address offlist and I can send you a CD that I have tested out myself and see if you get the same results.
