Hello this is my first time posting in this forum. (usually find everything I need in the forum). But I have searched for a fix to this problem, and the closest thing I found to my problem on this forum is this thread. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=819086&highlight=ga-p35-ds3l. I cannot get passed this blank orange-yellow screen. I know the disk is good, as I have used it in other PC's and Laptops. Upon further testing of other linux distros, they all boot up fine. My problem seems to be limited to all Ubuntu based distros as I get that same screen with each one. Linux Mint, Kubuntu, Xubuntu. I have tried 8.04 and up on all distros with the same effect. Please help me, I really enjoy using Ubuntu over the other distros. Here is my PC's hardware specs if that helps. And Thank You.
