Ubuntu 9.10 Flashing Cursor during both Desktop and Alternate install

I have an Acer Travelmate 230 laptop that i want to install ubuntu 9.10 on, but once i get to the main menu (off the live cd) i select install, and after a progress bar appears for 10 minutes, i just get a flashing underscore. I have left it like this for 3 hours and it doesnt seem to do anything... Is this a hardware fault somewhere along the line? I have ran several Memory and CPU and hard drive tests which all come back OK...

There are lots of troubleshooting tips in the Ubuntu documentation.
