I'll wait for the picture, but now that you have Sparky running I believe it has dmidecode installed by default. You might as well open a terminal and post the results of the following commands:
sudo dmidecode -t 0
sudo dmidecode -t 4
sudo dmidecode -t 24
(There is one space between the -t and the  number)
Also I meant for you to use the one time boot menu (often the F12 key) to manually select the LL live USB to boot from.

Rebooted but it is back to the same error again, also tried the one time boot thing, it is F11 in my system but had the same results, here's the results of the commands you asked for.

Please try the following: Disable PnP  in the BIOS, and try installing LL 64bit. Also here is a decent link for dmidecode usage.

Learning Linux is a happy thing.

This link may help you understand how to modify boot options for the LL live dvd or USB.

Maybe I need to edit some boot parameters, can you suggest what should I add or remove? I am able to check install media through LL live usb and now can also boot into LL safe mode? But it shows the kernel panic error when booting with default options.
