I am using the VGA port to connect monitor. Installer starts and click install ubuntu not starting and it says no input (Video not detecting).

All you've told us is that you're running and AMD APU and have a VGA port. That's not nearly enough to go on.

Boot from the installation media, choose Try Ubuntu, and when you get to a desktop, open a terminal and enter "lspci" -- and post that info back here.

Folks need to see info about your hardware before they can offer detailed advice.

I was able to see the menu

Try ubuntu/install ubuntu/check media

After that, If i select install/try ubuntu.. The next screen is not going. It gives video not detecting.

I have a laptop with AMD a6 which works fine for ubuntu installation same media.
