    laptop freezes at power on

    i have AMD A10 8gb ram/1tb hdd , dual graphics (AMD).

    i installed windows 8 (not efi) than ubuntu 13.10 (not efi).
    installations were successfull.

    but after restart laptop freezes on purple screen(background color of grub) and OS menu arent getting displayed.

    i used boot repair to purge and reinstall grub but no success.

    when i booted from pendrive and selected "Boot from hardrive" it worked and i can boot into any OS i want.

    I am really confused , why it freezes at normal startup ? and why it works when booted from bootable pendrive.

    Please help!!

    How did you install OS? From DVD or USB?
    Cookies=the little boogers that lock down mouse buttons on a laptop.
