(: 1. What motherboard do you have? 2. Do you know what version of iDeneb you have? 3. When the DVD first asks you to press <Enter> to boot the DVD, instead, press F8. You should see a command prompt. Type: -v -x and then press <Enter> The -v puts the boot into verbose mode where you should see messages about what is happening. Report on what it says when it hangs. If it says something about a "panic", then after that will be a block of numbers and then a mention of a "backtrace". Report on what comes after the "backtrace". The -x puts the boot into safe mode. This will eliminate loading some unnecessary drivers which may be causing problems.
