All right!! It seems to have fixed my issue :). Mem=1G allowed me to boot the amd64 installer.

Subject: [Bug 464710] Re: LiveCD freeze

I've experienced the same problems with my Dell Optiplex 740 (BIOS
1.2.2).

One of our eminent system engineers suggested that I should add "mem=1G"
as a boot option. This made the Ubuntu 10.04 amd64 live cd boot with no
problem.
