The image that I linked worked perfectly for me and it sounds like @MrWizerd had the same experience. I think that you should give try it. Hopefully it will address your issues.
Yup, worked like a treat, I have to reseat my keyboard for some reason, probably because it's a cheap keyboard...
The other thing and maybe the op could add this to his guide is that in order to install mate you MUST run the command "sudo apt-get update" as suggested by pineypinguin.

I am restarting this because it may it get missed and users not familiar with Linux/Unix may not know about updating repositories. I practiced on an old laptop for a while which is how I knew.
