I burned the 64-bit desktop version of 9.10, loaded it in, selected English language, then selected the "Install Now" option. I get a cool white Ubuntu graphic pulsing for about a minute then the cd spins down, the graphic freezes and my computer hangs.
I tried the safe graphics option, tried booting into the live cd, same result. The graphic freezes its animation and my computer hangs. Caps/Num/Scroll lock keys are unresponsive.
I checked the cd for defects, it's fine. I ran the memtest program and got no errors. I had 64-bit 9.04 installed about a month ago, then I upgraded to Windows 7 (over ...uugh.. Vista) in anticipation of dual booting with W7 and Karmic. W7 runs fine so I know its not a hardware problem.
Anyone else have this issue and/or more information?
My hardware:
Intel C2Q 9550
ATI 4850X2
4GB ram, DDR2 800
