Hey all :)
It's the second time I'm upgrading from 10.04 to 10.10 and it's failing
The first time I've set it to upgrade and left the house I came back I saw the upgrade program has frozen I've restarted this ****** PC(alternative PC) because the main one is currently broken so what I came and saw after the restart is the Terminal nothing else
Ubuntu Terminal asks me to login and then after the login nothing happens , I can put some commands
After a while a friend of mine told me that this is a video card drivers problem and it seems that it was a drivers problem
So I spent a good time trying to find the correct driver but there was no driver available as I saw
I re installed 10.04(format) and I've spent a while using 10.04 I decided to give the upgrade another try so I did
This time it didn't freeze it didn't do anything and at the end it asked me to keep or remove files so I've clicked remove the unneeded files and it asked me to restart so I've restarted.. I though this time it will work.. but no . same thing the terminal is back and I was really annoyed I lost most of the files I should have made a backup I know

Yes I know the PC is really old but this one that employees use at Banks
This is temporary one till I fix my main one and I don't have money to afford to fix the main one
It lags a lot :(
