Hardware errors after instalation

Post by Ewro »

My Windows was with problems so i decide give a chance for Linux. I made a bootable pendrive with the Cinnamon 18.3. After the automatic boot screen, i just could enter in Mint using the Compatibility mode, if not the computer restart. I went to "Install Linux Mint" and selected the "Erase disk and install Linux Mint" option. The instalation proceed normally and i restart my computer(i didnt remove my pendrive for the restart). After that, i reach the gnu grub screen. I select the "Linux Mint 18.3 Cinnamon 64-bit", but i see 3 hardware errors and the computer restart.
I can use the Recovery Mode, and i use this to install the amd64-microcode, but thats all.
Maybe i did something wrong in the installation?

ps: english isnt my primary language, so sorry by the mess

Normally, after the installation of LM as a single-boot has completed, if you then straightaway Restart the computer, you should go into BIOS setup by pressing one of the Function or F-keys, eg F2, F10, F12, etc and change the Boot (device) order from USB drive to internal hard drive. Save changes and Exit BIOS setup. This will boot LM if it has been successfully installed. For single-boot, there will be no Grub menu displayed unless you had pressed the SHIFT or ESC key repeatedly after exiting BIOS setup or during computer startup. Thereafter, the Live LM USB pendrive should be removed.

If after computer Restart, you did not go into BIOS setup, then the computer will continue to boot the Live LM USB pendrive = Grub menu displayed.

Bear in mind that there is another F-key for you to choose the One-Time Boot menu, which is a temporary Boot (device) order setting, ie won't be retained after a computer Restart or Power off/on.

I change it, my boot order is:
1. CH3 M. : TOSHIBA ...
2. USB-HDD0 : Generic Flash Disk
3. Bootable Add-in Cards

But i still getting the gnu grub menu, and selecting the first option make my computer restart.
Maybe i can re-install LM again?

edit: i followed this guide viewtopic.php?f=46&t=122257 (i use a R7 370) and i gone to compatibility mode, its the purpose of the guide or something wrong happened?

edit2:i tried the command inxi -m for check my ram, because in my Windows the task manager showed "8Gb unknown", and i see the message
