Hi everybody,

I`m having trouble with ubuntu installation, to be specific every time after booting my system freezes, the only thing I can do is hard reset.
I cleared my hdd (all of them)and when ubuntu live starts and the desktop loads everything freezes. I managed to install ubuntu before it boots from cd, but after the installation it still freezes after a minute.
I`m trying to install a single system, the configuration worked fine with windows xp

I tried these versions Ubuintu 12.10 32bit, 12.04 32bit, 12.10 64bit, 12.04.1 LTS 64bt, 11.04 32 bit.

then i tried on Linux Mint 14.1 cinnamon 32bit
the same problem occurs.

I replaced my RAM, and the PSU still nothing

this is my configuration:

Amd Athlon 64 3000+
MBO dfi Infinity nF4X
nvidia geForce 6600
Kingmax 1GB DDR400
Kingmax 512MB DDR400
Crosair 512MB DDR400
Seagate Baracuda 80 GB HDD
WD 250 GB HDD
WD caviar green 1 TB

I did a memory test with Memtest86, and everything was fine
I read on forums that I should update the kernel, but I can`t do that because everything freezes after less then a minute

Please, please help I`m sweating over thins for a week now....

Did you let it run for at least two complete iterations? One iteration is often not enough to detect problems.

Is there any other hardware connected to the machine, besides keyboard, mouse and monitor?

Can you boot into low graphic mode?

It ran two iterations.

line out is connected to my mixer, and a network cable to my modem (I tried plugin in and out network cable, no effect )
that`s it..

which video driver is installed ? you should use "nouveau" with that 6600.

when you boot, edit the boot line to remove "quiet splash" to see if you get warnings/errors while booting.

have you tried booting in recovery mode ? (hold "shift" key down at bios end process to get the grub menu on a single OS system)

I removed the "quiet splash" and there was no errors.

I booted in recovery mode and started the dpkg, it uploaded the package but still no sucsess.
