boot normally.. but in to DOS mode, instead of Windows (where it would lock, normally)
Format your harddrive, using the parameter for the boot sector (bye bye virus, if you have it) THEN reboot.. insert CD and see if it loads.
the point is, the computer loads all those temp files onto the hard drive. If it's crashing, it's probably having a problem doing that. Either the cd is bad, or the drive is screwed.
pop the drive out and stick it in another computer, try a chkdsk or some sort of diagnostic software. If you had a spare drive lying around you could answer your problem in 2 minutes.
