I have a problem with a new install
Installing 7.10 from a CD boot and the graphics come in garbled after I make my selection of install , I changed the VGA settings and attempted to run in safe graphics mode still no different.
I am running a NVDIA ge force 6200 with two monitors, if I take one monitor off it makes no difference. I see four garbled ubuntu logos across the top of the screen

I am running a dual core 3800 amd 64 bit

Any suggestions appreciated

Installo with the Alternate CD and configure your xserver at the end of the installation.
