I've had similar problems with some PC's. Using the "Alternate CD" cured the problem. If your computer is not able to run the standard Desktop installation CD, you can use an Alternate installation CD instead. The Alternate CD also allows more advanced installation options which are not available with the Desktop CD. <a href="https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation">https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation</a> HTH Bob <a href="http://alaskanbest.com/ubuntusearch.htm">http://alaskanbest.com/ubuntusearch.htm </a> <div>On 6/24/07, Ravi Vishnu <<a href="mailto:rv15i@yahoo.se">rv15i@yahoo.se</a>> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> Hi, I am new to linux. I have a windows XP pc. I have just succeeded in burning the 7.04 version onto a cd. I have checked with md5 and the downloaded version was OK. I then tried to boot from the cd. I got the following message on the screen : Out of Range Set Monitor to 1280x1024@60 Hz After this, the pc just hung up. There does not seem to be anything in the documentation to help me. Please let me know how I can get around this problem and get on to trying out Linux. Thanking You, Ravi <hr size="1"><table><tbody><tr><td>Hitta din nästa resa på Yahoo! Shopping.
