Instalation Freeze after probing EDD step

I've just downloaded ArchLinux32 iso (archlinux-2018.02.01-i686), and tryed to install it on my old Asus Laptop (X71 SL Series):
- Intel Core 2 Duo 32 bit
- Nvidia Geforce 9300M
- 4GB Ram

The problem is that the instalation process freezes after Probing EDD step.

I've tryied this solution (https://unix.stackexchange.com/question … uring-boot), without success

So, i've run the instalation process with loglevel=7, and got that te instalation is freezing after the message "key type big_key registered"

I'm runing the instalation process using a DVD, as i've already lost two Pen drives, trying to fix it.

Can anyone help me?

I've also tryied Ubuntu, LUbuntu and CentOS...
