The installer images are different for different architectures (ie, 32 bit and 64 bit)

If your processor is 32 bit, then download the corresponding image. If you are trying to install the AMD64 image on a 32 bit architecture, you will face this issue.

Yes... try another version (f.e. 8.04 or 9.04RC if you are using a 8.10-CD now) and/or another fresh burned CD. Often it's just a failed burn.
Also you can try some other distro like Fedora.
