If it is getting past the boot and the meter goes across the screen and then it goes black, then it could be a video card problem. I have seen the live cd do that but work fine after installing. Try hitting F4 and selecting "safe mode" at the boot time, right after you select the language.

First, go into bios and make sure you select boot from cd derive first.

If that doesn't work, then try burning another cd. Burn with a lower speed, and try a different type of blank disc. Sometimes the disc brand can cause problems.
