Cant install any linux, Cant even boot live cd Options

[bot375]

Ok... I hope I am putting this in the right place. This is my first forum. Anyway, A while back I Flashed my bios and all seemed well. Before this I was dual-booting Xp and debian with no problem whatsoever.Then some weirdness occured that made me think a bios update was in order. Bios flash went smooth(nerve-racking, but smooth). And windows has worked great for months. I can reinstall it fine. No errors that I can see during post. I've tried failsafe defaults, optimized defaults, and even bought new ram. I've tried booting from both cd and usb. Ive tried several different distros. Some distros just sit with a blank screen after i've select an installation option (debian, slackware). Then some give me a long list of kernel panic errors (ubuntu, knoppix). Cant remember what fedora did. So I got no Idea.

at this very moment I dont have the exact errors it reports but i will provide my sys specs below.
