12.04 alongside Win7 HP Pavillion i386 chipset black screen on boot
Asked by
Mark Wetzel
I used the Wubi to install 12.04 alongside WIn7 on a brand new HP Pavillion G7 with the i386 shipset. On reboot I get the now infamous black screen. I made a CD and using nomodeset as a boot option I can boot via CD. When I select to install 12.04 then it immediately tells me to remove the CD and it then attempts to reboot to where we all began.
It appears to acknowledge that I have 12.04 installed however that obviously is a bad decision.
Where do I go next?
I searhed launchpad and haven;t found anything exactly similar. Most seem to be having problems with the Nvidia driver, however i hae the Intel chipset.v
