http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=60&t=117368 may be of use, though I've only had a quick look. It may be your CPU doesn't work with the version of the kernel supplied for installation, as opposed to live? There's mention of a "LMDE 32 bit comes with a 486 non-PAE kernel by default to remain compatible with non-PAE processors".
