Not even installing

Postby kurihana30 on Thu Apr 26, 2012 8:59 pm

Hmmm.
I've tried
* linuxmint-201204-mate-cinnamon-64bit-rc
* linuxmint-201204-mate-cinnamon-dvd-64bit and
* linuxmint-201204-mate-cinnamon-dvd-32bit
without success.
First one, can't remember what happened but for the two others, it would stuck on "please wait, loading" on an almost white screen.
I waited long and nothing happened.
I'm so disappointed cause I use Mint 3 years ago and it was perfect! Can someone tell me if I've done something wrong or direct me to the debut of a solution perhaps?
I burned the iso correctly so I don't get my problem. Anyone came up with the same problem?

My install is from exactly a year:
- Sapphire AMD HD 6850 1Go GDRR5
- Corsair DDR3 4Go 1600MHz C9
- AMD Phenom II X2 555
- Asus M4A88TD-V EVO/USB3
Oh and I'm on dual Windows 7/Ubuntu 10.10 for now

Thank you for the help you can provide.

Maybe your drive has seen better days, try from a USB stick instead? :?
Code: Select all
The program 'suck' is currently not installed.  To run 'suck' please ask your administrator to install the package 'suck'

If you are still unable to get these to work, try Mint 11. I had problems installing LMDE 201204, Mint 12 KDE, and Mint 12 Gnome, but Mint 11 works like a charm.

Have you tried starting up on compatibility mode. Maybe it's a graphics problem.
