Hello Ubuntu,
I'm a new user wishing to try out Ubuntu and hoping to give my old PC a new life. I thought everything was going well until I ran into an installation problem though, and after trying countless times to fix it on my own I decided to come here for help.
To make a long story short the problem occurs during installation on the part where you are asked to set a name, name your computer, user ID, and set a password. When the information is completely filled out I do not have the option to go forward anymore (although the button is there; it is unusable) I am able to go back however.
What could cause this problem? and more importantly what can I do to fix it?
Additional information that might be needed I am trying to install on an HP desktop which previously had Windows XP. During my several installation attempts so far I have chosen to use the whole disk for the Ubuntu installation because I do not want the Windows installation at all.
Thanks in advance for any help.
