P.S, everything worked fine with ATI Radeon 4670 HD, this issue happened when i changed my VGA to 6670, and i got this issue with any version of ubuntu

Thanks in advance :)

Have you Installed the proprietary drivers? if so, which ones? , which Ubuntu version? What have you tried? don't let information out of your question. — Uri Herrera, Aug 04 '12 at 17:34

Welcome Muhammad

You could try editing the install options and change "quiet splash" with nomodeset, this should inhibit the installer loading a graphics driver which causes your problem. I'm not sure the details but I had to use this once when I installed ubuntu and you can find details in forums. It appears to be a bit of a dark art!

There is an alternative installer which I read is text base, Ive never used it perhaps someone can confirm this?

I found a similar problem here for boot but I assume it's driver problem and it should work too.
