hi
new ubuntu , linux appreciate straightforward advice please on install problem.
pulled "recycled" pc son based on asus k8vse motherboard hd different machine. hd older ide drive have set master cd drive slave on secondary ide socket on motherboard. bios can see , seems fine side of things.
when try boot install of 10.04 optical drive following happens....
- cd spins , couple of lines of text @ top of screen introducing linux instal
- logos @ bottom of screen, suggesting instalation has commenced.
- after 10 seconds flashing cursor in top left corner, cd stops spinning , thats it... freezes
have tried ubuntu 9 cd - same problem time load of code running down screen before freezes flashing cursor. im pretty sure both cds fine since have used them on old laptop - no problemo
similar threads suggest there may issue of cards on board??? graphics cards?? sorry if has been posted.
appreciate ideas / pointers next please. have pretty basic understanding!!

as cd starts can press f6 parameters or f4 minimal video?
