I would appreciate advice with the following:

I want to install Xubuntu and Xface in a new unformatted partition on a
vintage 2007 machine running XP pro, but can get no further than the
installation from the DVD image.

I attempted to install Xubuntu 16.04 (also 16.04-1) on my PC desktop using
images burnt from Xubuntu-16.04(.1)-desktop-i386.iso files.

The Problem: On the first Xubuntu screen that has a dialog box and other
features (a scroll bar, some radio buttons etc.) there is no text.

Action so far: Did an IRC and a support person suggested using ESC to access
an older dialog box, but that was also displayed without text. We suspect a
problem with the Graphics card driver. 
If the problem is a driver for the Graphics card, do I need a different
Xubuntu build to use it? Any other workarounds?

Request: Suggestions on how to resolve this issue would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Derek

The Hardware: MOB: Intel D975XBX2 (2 Gbyte RAM), Graphics Card: XFX GEFORCE
8500 GT 256 MB PCI, Monitor ViewSonic VA2226w.
