It states that it does not recognize the DVD drive therefore I cannot proceed with the installation.
Are you able to post the exactly message of error?
What made you think the system does not recognize DVD drive? Appears an error message or something like?
Has you had the problem with standard ubuntu installer or with 32 bit version?
Thank's for the report.

if cd is not reconized can be
But DMA configuracion
Problems with the IDE cable
are you try to change the conexion cable from master o slave for example or from BIOS ?
reading the post i understand this "you try with "
Alternate CD
DVD
can you try with the default cd not the alternate ?

Thanks for the quick replies!
Actually I boot the 64 bit alternate installer. That is booting properly, and the installer starts.
The problem is that it does not detect my DVD drive (as I try to continue the process of installation).
I will try the default live CD and maybe try to change the drive master / slave state.

Hi Aron,
Please you must show that error message appears when you try to install Ubuntu.

Okay, seems that the CD driver has been tired / old / not supported.
Everything went well with a new one.
