Hoary live CD fails on laptop

[Tab Gilbert]

I do not have a solution but have the same exact problem.  Plain
gateway e-2000.  I 'm an extra-virgin newbie but I have done five
downloads and 15 burns at every speed.  Bing. Same deadend.  Did 1x
and different batch.  Nothing worked.  Maybe someone will post a
possible solution/work around.  I have found no information.
