Installation problem

Asked by Edoardo Amisano

Hi everybody,
I've tried to install Ubuntu with the CD and "Wuby" but when try to do it I cannot see anything in the screen, and there is written in the midle of the screen "Out of Range" or something similar. My screen is 1280x1024 pixels, max. Any solution to this problem..

Thanks.
Sorry for my bad English, I'm from Andorra.

Add the boot option:

nomodeset

Can help. If you use an nvidia gpu then use:

nouveau.blacklist=1

To override boot options for wubi (first boot after installing) see post #8 on this link: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132
To override on subsequent boots see post #1 on that same link.
