Re: freezes on 2nd reboot,
For your graphics card you require nomodeset:

Re: freezes on 2nd reboot,
thanks for the reply!
i followed the instructions
and it still freezes in the second boot
i uninstalled and reinstalled:
in the first boot i pressed ESC, edited "Normal" and added nomodeset then [ctl]+[x]
in the second boot i edited the first entry "ubuntu", added nomodeset then [ctl]+[x] screenshot
same thing, it freezes :/
any other things i can try?
Re: freezes on 2nd reboot,
Just confirm - that's a cursor following nomodeset right? You didn't add nomodeset_ ?
I'm assuming everything was correct.
You could try noacpi as well as nomodeset. Also someone with a similar model was having issues with power management enabled: http://askubuntu.com/q/50833/14916
Finally, I'd check if there are any BIOS updates available.
PS if noacpi works, then you should still try other options, because that can disable many useful features.

yes
tried noacpi with nomodeset its the same
also tried to disable power management, no difference, except xp didn't boot so i enabled it.
i checked the bios, they are up to date, i have the latest version.

Re: freezes on 2nd reboot,
Doesn't look good.
Maybe try 12.04? Or try booting one a live CD of lubuntu/xubuntu and see if that works better.
