Question #78334 on Ubuntu changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/78334
Tom proposed the following answer: Well, your machine is well above min.spec. - Ubuntu needs 800MHz, 512Mb and 15Gb of hard-drive space so it should be working fine. Lets have a look at a few things. Here's a guide to help with the Memory Test and other things ActionParsnip suggested https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/CDIntegrityCheck?action=show&redirect=CDIntegrityCheck Also i was wondering if you could borrow an external cd/dvd-drive to see if that works better? Perhaps it's a hardware problem rather than 2 Cd's being wrong? Also can you download and make a cd in Windows? If so then a much smaller distro called Wolvix Hunter might be worth trying as a LiveCd to see if there are other issues we are missing http://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=wolvix As i'm considering this i find myself wondering if Windows is working at all? The flashing lights on the keyboard suggest a serious ram problem (such as corrupted ram) which the "Memory Test" should find and fence off. It could also be something like a loose graphics cards or other card or seriously over-heated cpu maybe - although this last one is very unlikely imo. Anyway, good luck and regards from Tom :) -- You received this question notification because you are a member of UF Unanswered Posts Team, which is an answer contact for Ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntuforums-unanswered Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntuforums-unanswered More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
