NO cursor control on installation at step 1 of 6

[Ed80]

Binary package hint: ubuntu-docs

I am trying to install Ubuntu 9.1 on a new Toshiba L505D laptop with factory Windows 7.
During the load from CD I see one possible problem: " WORKER [1041] unexpectedly returns with status 0X0100"

When I get to the question and answer part of the install, STEP ONE OF SIX, I have no way to input the answers. No control of cursor in midle of screen. Touch pad does not work, nor do the arrow keys, the mouse or ANY other key on the keyboard.

In one of my many attempts I tried to run Ubuntu from the CD rather than from my PARTITIONED drive. It worked perfectly all the way through step 6 of the install. I was instructed to reboot at that point. WHen I rebooted I lost all control of the cursor again.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You for making Ubuntu better.

Sorry, I am unable to respond. Windows restore failed to restore my HD
as expected and the computer has to be returned to Toshiba to have the
HD restored. Might be two weeks before I can try to install Ubuntu
again. Now I really want a Linux system...
