The ISO works fine. Check the MD5 hash of your ISO... and compare to 
what the site says.

If you have the 8.04.1 i368 desktop, your MD5 hash should be : 
c69e34e92d5402d1b87e6babc739f774

You may be having other problems. How much RAM does your system have?

Have you tried downloading the "alternate" CD? Works with smaller, and 
sometimes more exotic machines.

Gilles.
