Problem with Booting Linux!
The file that you downloaded is known as an ISO image. All those ones and zeroes are meant to be burnt to the cd as is.
When you burn the image to a cd, make certain that your software does _no_ manipulation to the data. Search for an option in your software to burn an ISO image to cd. I know that in the Nero software this is not intuitive and confusing to find. Go to the "Burn" tab and choose something similar to "Burn ISO Image" then choose the ISO file.

That's your error right there. Second person today to post about this exact same problem and to make the same error. See my generic answer #1.

Verifying of md5 checksum and burning a CD at slow speed are important.
