This is extremely suspicious. If the integrity check hung, then as unlikely as 
it sounds, there just might be something wrong with the CD. I'd suggest doing 
the integrity check on your Dell and seeing if that works. If it fails, then 
you know your problem. If it doesn't, then we can move forward from there.
