I was trying to install the new 11.4 version onto my computer but the updater stopped halfway while downloading the new files off of the web to tell me that something was wrong with my system and that my update couldn't finish.
I think it has something to do with my computer's memory being all filled up. All of the sudden, certain programs (like Ubuntu Software Center) wouldn't open and all of the drop down menu's showed box's instead of regular words (move to trash, etc.) they used to have.
Anyway, I tried restarting because I thought that the problem would go away, like most other glitches that happen during startup, but my computer wouldn't turn on at all.
I looked through other forums and couldn't find any solutions that worked.
I tried everything from booting up with the shift key to trying to load previous versions of Ubuntu to even booting from a c.d.
Please help me!
All of my information is on there and I know very little about the system and technicalities.
