I should add the actual card is made by Gigabyte, but it has a Nvidia chipset on it. (Gigabyte GEforce GT 630) I can't find a linux driver anywhere for it, the manufacturer only lists windows OS...

I tried that...it made it worse. The dock disappeared and wouldn't come back until I reset the driver and restarted the computer, lol

Not an option where I work, lol, plus I break portable computers too easily.

I did end up keeping 12.10 since I had it downloaded and already had a little experience using it. It is very clean looking.

As far as graphics drivers, I'll have to do some more research on...

Also.... I have 11 posts but it only reads 7.....why is that????:mad:

I don't get why you lock out the User CP on new members. (Under 25 posts.) It's stupid that I have to manually subscribe to any threads I comment in because I can't set it to auto-subscribe.

WTF...

I disagree. Although they may not have been completely accurate, the movies were excellent, especially the extended directors cuts.

These films are going to be extreme.....

Ok, this is probably what I need help with then. I followed the direction on the Ubuntu website as best I could to make an install disk. But it is only the .iso file. What/how do I do it differently...

Hmm...

I'll try the trick mentioned earlier, and if it doesn't work I'll try 12.4.

If that doesn't work.... I may just wait until I get Win 7. Should be here in a week, anyway. I like...

The new hard drive is NTFS, completely formatted. Never had any OS on it. Bios DOES see the HDD.

Boot key? not sure what you mean. I can enter bios, tell it to boot from CD, but it just goes to a...

Hardware is fine. Like I said, I ran Ubuntu on the newer computer when it was setup as a "Dual Boot" on my XP hard drive. I have a new, blank/formatted hard drive that I want to install a fresh, new...

I'm having an issue with 12.10...

I have a fresh new hard drive I formatted in XP on my older computer, then I installed it in my new computer, and every time I try to boot it will not read the...
