    Welcome to the forums!

    I'd try using the alternate installation disk (text installer) if you haven't tried it already. For whatever reason, it works for me every time whereas the liveCD installer always fails. If that doesn't work, you might need to try booting with some of the various kernel boot options available to you:

    https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions

    You might also want to consider trying version 9.10 since it should have better hardware detection.
