Another quick thought - you write that you are using a laptop. I am assuming that you are using the laptop's built-in keyboard and getting no luck with holding the shift key at boot? If you haven't done so, that might be the best option; but if that isn't working, it may be worth trying a USB keyboard if you have one.
Also, can you boot OK from the live-DVD or live-USB?
Otherwise, I'm hoping someone more knowledgeable than I will have some ideas.

Don't worry about artificial intelligence. Worry about natural stupidity.
