Like Gora I too have been running Ubuntu7.04 on my HP Pavillion Tx1000 core 2 AMD. No problems and i would endorse his vies on 32 bit. Try passing option "linux noapic and acpi=on" at the live cd boot prompt. You may need to add vga=hi or vga=711 if you are having wide screen. > Would somebody be able to advise?
