Question #77289 on Ubuntu changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/77289

    Status: Open => Answered

actionparsnip proposed the following answer:
Did you MD5 check the ISO you downloaded? Did you verify the CD one
first booted to? Did you burn the CD as slowly as you could (8x is good
4x if you can)

You could try disabling all unnecessary hardware in the bios (like LAN,
sound, other fancy stuff)

The driver for your Nvidia card means nothing in this case as it is a
piece of windows software so will in no way affect the Linux install.

You can also try pressing F6 at insitial CD boot and selecting various
combinations of boot options to see if that helps.

You could also try removing 2 of your video cards to see if this helps
