I've been using Ubuntu 12 in my laptop but now I have a new compuer and I'm trying to install Ubuntu(or GNOME) 14.04 LTS but I can't.

I put the ISO file with "Universal-USB-Installer-1.9.5.8" into my pendrive, all goes well, but When I reboot the computer and boots into UBUNTU install menu from pendrive(where I have options to try, install, check memory, etc) and when I try to install ubuntu it only shows a gray screen and then I have a message in my LCD that says "frecuencies out of range", so I decided to try some commands like: vga=771, nomodeset, acpi=off and others that I found here, but with all these commands I see "ubuntu" and the points un red and white but nothing happens, after that I got the same message "out of range" anyone can tell me how to install it?

My computer:

AMD Bulldozer FX-6300(black ed) 8GB RAM GT-9800 Nvidia 1GB 17" monitor 500GB HDD

  • Have you tried unetbootin or usb-creator-gtk? I've never had any problems with those 2... – Fabby Nov 30 '14 at 00:58
  • I can install it with network installer, but now I can access to desktop :( I donwloaded Ubuntu Desktop but I see the black screen I want to cry – Juan Pablo Toniolo Nov 30 '14 at 22:11
  • You seem to have a lot of trouble to install Ubuntu and it seems video-related, so why not 1/ disable NVidia in the BIOS and install Ubuntu. If that works, get back to me. OR 2/ start with Lubuntu (internally it's the same OS) and then upgrade to Ubuntu from there (at least you'll have something to fall back to) – Fabby Nov 30 '14 at 22:27
  • @Fabby okay, how to disable Nvidia? My motherboard have Integrated ATI Radeon HD 3000 graphics so I have to use it? and whats the difference with LUBUNTU? – Juan Pablo Toniolo Dec 01 '14 at 16:25
  • How did the new LCD work out??? – Fabby Dec 03 '14 at 02:06
  • Nothing happens, I have the same problem, I think that the problem is The video Card, Can I try to install ubuntu with the EXE file that is on the pendrive? EDIT: I installed Windows 7 for now – Juan Pablo Toniolo Dec 04 '14 at 03:49
  • I have no clue any more... I've upvoted your question to try and attract more skilled people then me... Sorry. :-( – Fabby Dec 04 '14 at 10:30
  • @Fabby anway, thanks, maybe this thread help others, and with your help I know Lubuntu and other commands, I'll try to put Xubuntu in my laptop, and then clone it to my desktop PC – Juan Pablo Toniolo Dec 04 '14 at 21:30
