Hello, I just burned a copy of the x86_64 dvd and tried to run it on my machine.. It told me it could not run this and then specified that i need i586. I dont see this, only i386 and i686. Which to burn?

You need the i386 version for the install DVD. Looks like the live version is listed as i686. That should work too.

as you need i586, i386 is your choice here

i686 > i586, therefore i686 won't work.
i386 install dvd contains i586 AND i686 kernels.

What's your hardware? (Specifically, what processor does the system have?)
