Seems you've done a bit, but have you checked the md5sum of the ISO and burned as slow as possible?
Have you tried compatibility mode? (Press any key while the live CD counts down)

Re: trouble installing linux mint on my dell system
Well - stick with Elyssa - it is a LTS after all
I see some reports of failed install with Felicia but success with Elyssa. I must conclude that some change in the kernel is no good for some hardware
This is to my mind the (only?) really bad thing about Linux - a new kernel that supports new hardware should not mean lost support for other hardware
Run lspci and post, I might get some idea from it....

Re: trouble installing linux mint on my dell system
You run lshw - a bit too much info lspci would have been enough
I just found more problems with this chipset
I have to find that topic and come back to you, right now it's time for the kitchen and cooking today's dinner

Re: trouble installing linux mint on my dell system
I have not found a solution, and it seems like newer kernels don't like the Brookdale chipset. I think that's your problem
