Hello,

My problem is quite simple, I would like to install xubuntu 12.04.3 , 64bits,
but I just can't boot from any USB xubuntu iso
I need your help as i actually spent 10+ hours burning differents ISO trying to figure out what is wrong.

Some facts :

- My computer accept 64bits ( already have windows7_64 and manjaro_64 )

- In the same time, my laptop has been able to boot on several other Live OS : ( Fedora / Ubuntu / Manjaro )
and can probably boot on others OS too.

- All these ISO, including the faulty xubuntu one, can boot on my Desktop computer, so it's only my laptop

- I tried downloading the xubuntu ISO from 5 differents mirror.

- My faulty xubuntu ISO can be used under virtualbox without problems

- I tried Burning the xubuntu ISO with : Unetbootin(both linux and windows version) / pendrive ( windows ) / LiLi usb creator ( windows )
and all failed to work.

- Both "Desktop" and "Alternate" ISO, 32 or 64 bits versions, failed.


It seems like my laptop just hate xubuntu, do you have any suggestions :( ?

( I can consider installing ubuntu and switching to xfce4 later, but i prefer doing it properly if possible )


I hope i was clear enough,
thanks you for your help,


Edit: for some reasons i think i just posted in the Forum Section i was browsing instead of the Installation&Upgrades One,
i'm sorry for that ...

What errors are you getting? The other distros, did you use a live usb as well or did you burn them on cd/dvd? Have you tried xubuntu on cd/dvd?
