Linux Mint 12 fails to go to the Live DVD.

[shelcod]

I am using a Toshiba Satellite C640 laptop with the following specs:

- AMD Radeon HD 6310 graphics card
- Dual Core AMD E-350 processor @ 1.6 GHz
- 6 GB of RAM
- I am currently running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit edition.

So once in the past I installed Linux Mint 12. But it would constantly freeze after about 5-10 seconds of it starting up so I uninstalled it. Now when I try to reinstall it, it freezes on a screen with the last thing it says is: "[*] PulseAudio configured for per-user sessions saned disabled; edit /etc/default/saned)" and it never continues. Because of this I never get to the live DVD and never get the chance to install it.

Another thing that might be worth noting is that when I start the install the screen stays black for about a minute and then some white text pops up that says "waiting for network configuration" and it usually never passes this screen unless I press escape. Sometimes if I leave it I hear my disc tray stop after a bit and it won't let me hit escape to get to the next screen. Could this be apart of my problem? I find this weird because I managed to install before except it would freeze.

Here is a video showing the freezing before I uninstalled it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q8fZyRwY ... ture=g-upl

It sounds like your dvd or cd with the install may be corrupted

and

either you need to blank the dvd or cd and burn a fresh iso

Or get an new dvd or cd and burn a fresh iso

Hope that helps.

I don't think that this could be the problem as I tried installing it with multiple ISO's on many different DVD's. Is it possible that I could download it 3 times and it would be corrupt each time?

At one point I had Linux Mint 12 installed on the same computer but decided to remove it. Now I want it back but whenever I try to install it, it stops with the last like saying "[*] PulseAudio configured for per-user sessions saned disabled; edit /etc/default/saned)" and the "[*]" is in orange text.

I find this weird as I have succesfully installed Linux Mint 12 in the past and now it gives me this error.
