Core 2 Installation Problem

Attempting to boot from the core 2 DVD result in:
   ISOLINUX 2.08 2003-12-12 isolinux : Loading spec packet failed,
trying to wing it.
   Isolinux : Found something at drive = 9F
 
This is an OLD system - Pentium I, 200MHz, 80MB of memory, 2GB disk,
Award BIOS vintage 1996.  I recently installed Win2K on the system just
to validate that everything was working properly.  It would be nice to
have a dual boot disk but I realize that a 2GB disk just won't cut it so
my intent was to let the core 2 installation reformat the drive.
 
In another attempt, I booted from a Win95 boot disk, but at this point
the DVD device is not recognized.
 
Is there any hope for this system or is it just too old?
