Hi,
I can not boot ubuntu 10.10 rc from the live cd on my AMD 64bit Gateway. After the initial splash page - the title Ubuntu with the underlining blinking dots - the screen goes bonkers - criss crossy-like.

I've installed Ubuntu 10.04 previously with no problem. I've tried both the RC version and the daily build version. Is it a problem with the install CD or a hardware issue - i.e., integrated video card? (...Although you would think that if it was the video card, the splash page wouldn't appear.)

Any ideas,

Thanks,
Sam
