Well downloaded the ISO - tested it - wiped the partition with XP and then tried to install it and all I get get is my monitor saying it can't display that video mode.

Tried it with different video modes and in safe mode but no dice.
You can load the live cd up in normal mode ok though shaun??
When are you getting this message,after you reboot into your fresh installation i assume.
What video card do you have and how are you trying the differnt modes??
By logging out to a terminal i`m assuming

- Hit control-alt-F1..log in?
- type "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
- Accept all defaults except driver... choose the safe VESA driver for now mabey?
- Hit control-alt-F7
- Hit control-alt-delete

Sorry if you`ve tried all that as you seem to be saying?
