It would be more useful is you posted the brand, model number, and
memory size.
One possible thing to do is to download isolinux (and its related
initrd), and place them in your /boot directory, modify
/boot/grub/grub.con (or menu.lst) to point to those and see if they
boot. In the past, I have seen some issues where you could not install
from a DVD for various reasons. What about using a live CD, can you boot
from it?
