Cannot run or install - Please help

[capitao2000]

Please, i really neeed help.

I try to run or install ubuntu. The system start normally, but it freezes quickly. Even the num lock key don't work and the mouse stays quiet. It happens even if i run the live cd or install it. I try with several versions of ubuntu (9.10, 11.04 or the last one) and the result is the same. I really need ubuntu to work, because it's an office pc and the people wich work with it don't like another linux disttro. By the way, if I install another linux distro (fedora or suse) it works fine, but I want ubuntu.

The pc is a intel celeron D 3.20 GHZ (64 bit supported) with 512 MB and VGA onboard.

What happens? Please, help me!

you can try this it may work.

when the disc starts to boot in live session press the F6 key you should get a drop down menu from that select nomodeset

It may be due to the low memory. You may try the Text-based installation (http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/alternative-downloads)

But if i run the live cd it freezes. And low memory? I've already i've ubuntu installed ins a 256Mb system... But it's a possibility... Maybe I really need another distro if I cannot solve this
