Asked by

I have a dell latitude l400, about 5 years old. its a piece of crap but its the only thing i got. i just installed ubuntu 6.06 2 days ago off an old cd. yesterday i updated it to 8.04. now today, i turn it on it and have to boot it on the revovery, it works till i get to the log in screen. when i get there, i have to type my user name in, then it shuts down. i turn it back on and its on the password screen, i type that in, then it shuts down again. every time i turn it on, it starts up where it left off but only stays on for a few seconds, then turns off. can some one help me figure out whats going on?
