Hi,
I am a vista user how would also like to use Ubuntu alond with vista. I requested a live cd and it was delivered today
I put it in my drive started the boot from the disk, entered english on the ubuntu language menu and selected to operate
without changing any of my files. I have used Ubuntu on my other computer that runss XP, but I requestsd a lice cd because
every time I try to boot Ubuntu on my Vista (32-bit) laptop, after I make my boot selection from the Ubuntu menu, thhe screen
stays black the whole time, I even hear the welcome sound but I don't see anything. I thought this disk would work but it didn't.
I have a Lenovo IdeaPad Y710, 17" screen, ATI Radeon HD 2600 256mb graphics card, and 2 GB PC2-5300 DDR2 SDRAM 667MHz.
Could somebod please help me, I reallly would love to us Ubuntu with my Vista. Your help would be greatly appreciated.
