Did you enable the restricted drivers?
System > Administration > Hardware drivers
My Web site Linux User #472737 Ubuntu User #22496
Went there nothing is showing up it says
"NO PROPRIETARY DRIVERS ARE IN USE IN THIS SYSTEM"
tried that but my card is not found if i do a manual install it forces ubuntu into low graphics mode
Try this... First find out what graphics card you have like ati fx1131B for example and from what I can remember in "low graphics mode" you'll be able to select your graphics card.
