(ku,u,xu)buntu wont install

[mako94]

I have an old HP pavilion 774y. I have tried to install all these using the cd you sent me. It passed all the tests. My specs are more than capable. Arounds 23% install hangs up and just sits there. Then a black screen with a crap load of white text pops up.
Please tell me whats wrong.

Here are my specs
