When you start the live CD you get a page for language selection and a 
timer counting from 30 seconds to 0. You should press "enter" before it 
times out. Then you get a page with a menu with:

    - Try Kubuntu without any change to your computer
    - Install Kubuntu
    - Check disc for defects
    - ....

I would first try "Check disc for defects" to see if your install CD is 
OK. If that checks out OK you can then try "Install Kubuntu" from the 
previous mentioned menu.

Good luck!
