DDR3 1333 MHz, 35 W processor, 2 gigs ram, 2 hard drives totalling 650
gig space. I'll figure out how to do a checksum and boot with nomodeset
and get back to you with the info.

Well if its not autobooting are you sure you burned your disk properly
or that your BIOS automatically boots on CD over HD. Sounds like a bad
ISO, disk or burn to me. But could be wrong.
