Have installed 8.10 as a dual boot with XP. XP still works.
Installed version stops at a pale screen with the mouse pointer operable.
Live CD version stops at a black screen with the mouse pointer operable.
Have attempted sudo apt-get update, & install build-essential.
Mem test is ok.
Safe mode runs through a bunch of code then asks if I want to resume normal boot, where the procces hangs as above.

From GParted, note: I can't read some of the file systems due to screen res, so they may be mis spelled
