irmtmaol Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Been running mint on my laptop since i got it (x60 tablet). And now want it on my desktop of my new pc. I have two partitions one windows 7 64bit installed. MSI FM2-A55M-E33 Motherboard, Amd A8 APU + Amd hd 6570 graphics card in dual mode. Installing from usb. I get this from UEFI boot http://db.tt/2egZEXh4 And this from EFI http://db.tt/NMtifKuL using normal and compatibly mode. I've asked both the ubuntu and mint forums as this happens using both. So far no one has been able to help me. Any help is most appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr-Protocol Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 I would say it's a video driver issue. Look into the nomodeset kernel option. After you boot initially from that, you can install 3rd party or non-free video drivers. http://askubuntu.com/questions/38780/how-do-i-set-nomodeset-after-ive-already-installed-ubuntu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irmtmaol Posted July 24, 2013 Author Share Posted July 24, 2013 Still wont boot. Its starting to feel like something is trying to keep me on windows. Everything i try either crashes the installer or puts the scrambled graphics on the screen. Would it be possible to install the drivers to the iso? So they would already be their.

Mr-Protocol Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 I'm sure it's possible, but that is beyond my knowledge. The nomodeset is how I got my systems to install when doing such things with graphics like that. Maybe others will have some suggestions, but I would try the distro's forums again and pasting the hardware you have. Maybe even IRC.
