Problems with running Live CD.

I have tried running the Linux Mint Debian CD and it boots into the menu fine but once I ask it to launch, it gets stuck on this.

Picture of error: http://puu.sh/1rLJF

Here are my computer specs from CPU-Z: http://valid.canardpc.com/2587087

I have been able to run and install Mint before but I've recently had hardware changes so I'm assuming this is the issue of why the live cd won't launch.

If you need any more info, just ask.

As this is about LMDE, moving it here.

According to your posted error screen, you have some device connected which is NOT recognized or supported by Linux. This could be a thumb drive or flash memory device which is partitioned incorrectly, or a video controller which aborts on using the Linux generic nouveau nVidia driver, a keyboard which may work fine under Windows which doesn't respond correctly, or any of a number of other problems.

Do you get the same error when you try to boot into the safe graphics mode?

Possibly as I've had many hardware changes since I last installed.
How do I boot into this?
