Thread: 11.10 not installing
hello, i'm new ubuntu, bear me.
trying install 11.10 dual boot winxp, several problems keep occurring. first, when try use standard cd installation (insert disc , reboot), shows splash screen, hangs on black screen flashing line. if press enter on splash screen, list of options, 2 work are, memory test, , boot first hard drive. after trying numerous times method, decided try running wubi.exe inside windows. installation went off without hitch, after reboot, hangs on black screen after countdown completing installation. pressed escape more options 1 time, , option worked (i think like) apci workaround. allowed installation finish, after rebooting, went straight grub menu, , either option (regular , recovery mode) locks up.
appreciated.

processor: pentium 4 3.0 ghz hyper-threading
hard drive: 420 gb across 3 hard drives (160 gb on primary)
