UEFI was started in 2006 but I think your machine will be BIOS only so any advice about UEFI won't apply.
I guess there was something wrong with the CD.
Now you can boot off USB Live media, you can tidy up the partitioning as described in earlier posts 7 and 10
Basically right click on each partition's pictogram in turn and select 'delete'
Once all the partitions are queued for delete click 'apply' and gparted will remove them to blank the disk.
Once you have blanked the disk, please install a supported OS.
