Ubuntu Help

Still doesn't work. /: Goes to boot, but then the screen starts glitching out, and it just stays on that screen until eventually it goes back to the post screen. I have no idea what to do at this point.

After figuring out why nothing was downloading, fixing it, and downloading Ubuntu two more times, I put it on a flash drive with UNetbootin only to find that it still didn't work. More options were listed after Default (some repeated actually), but even if I clicked on Install Ubuntu, it didn't work. I am now trying it with Universal USB Installer 1.9.0.2. Hopefully this works.

Did you format the flash drive before putting Ubuntu on it? Unetbootin doesn't erase anything before hand, which can cause some issues. I always format before using that tool. Also, you did verify the MD5SUM right?

Downloaded it. I tried putting it onto a disc with PowerISO, and it didn't work. Perhaps my DVDs are the problem. Anyway, will try.

On another note, if this doesn't work, I'm just buying Windows 7.

If this does not work I will be surprised, are you sure your computer is set up right?
 
No, I'm not sure, but since everything else is working fine, I assume it is.

I didn't try putting it on a disk, since my laptop can't read disks, apparently. Whenever I put a DVD in, it doesn't show up. I give up, I bought Windows 7. Thanks for the help anyways! I greatly appreciate it.
