Ubuntu Does not Work?

Q. I downloaded Ubuntu 11.04, and I tried to use it through a USB. It would start, claim that it would load, do the weird Jingle then continue and freeze. It worked on my dad's other computer, but not on mine.

Then, I used a CD. It worked on my dad's computers AGAIN, yet when I tried it got to the part where it said "Try" or "Install", I pressed Try, and it froze, with the cursor going around and around endlessly. I think I have a problem with my Graphics Card. What should I do???

System Information:
Intel Core 2 Duo P8600 2.4 GHZ
4 GB RAM
Windows Vista 32 Bit (My Processor is 64 Bit Compatible too)
ATI Radeon 3400 HD Series (I do not use my computer for gaming...) 256 MB Dedicated RAM
HD Screen Resolution 1600x900
CD + DVD Player + Blue-Ray Player too
Sony Vaio FW180D

What should I do? Where can I update my graphics card if that is the problem? Thanks in advance.


Answer
Yeah, I think Ubuntu tests the graphics card at one point, because when i first tried to install Ubuntu on my old computer, it wouldn't work. The problem wasn't in the card not being supported, in was in that half of the card's capacitors were blown (no wonder Windows XP had been especially slow...)

Answer
The real answers are at ubuntuforums.org. Post this question over there.

I do like 11.04, very solid. I have had issues with the ATI Radeon.

At this point I suspect your DVD reader might not like the burned CD, but the people in Installations and Upgrades could quickly find something that works for you.

Good luck. Windows free now for over 7 years.
