Impossible to install linux on my computer hp laptop G62 - a36SO

Hello

I tried to get linux on my laptop working for the last days... Installation of the operating system is fine and he invites me to install the driver, owner of ATI Mobility for linux as my laptop has ATI mobility radeon 5xxx video chip...

Even this succeeds, but when I restart the system to complete the installation, I get an empty on the start-up screen and no response from the system here after...

I have been involved in every linux forum to find the cause of this problem and have also tried to install all kinds of flavors of linux like fedora, ubuntu, debian... without exploitation.

I even tried to install older version of ubuntu and even that did not work...

I also tried the driver settings listed in many forums and those forces work either...

And now I really regret why I chose to buy this hp laptop...

Can someone help me pls with this question...

Thank you!! "

You must load first in the system.

1: load the live CD of linux and as root edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf

2: change of ATI driver or anything like that to "vesa" in the Device section

3: reboot and now it should work in low resolution

4: Try this: http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/linux/Pages/radeon_linux.aspx

Don't install the drivers of 'Pilot' to install those owners

5: Try linux Mint instead of Ubuntu

  • Impossible to install Linux

    I am installing Linux Slackware 10.1, but as soon as the cd is started / reading, the following message is displayed:

    Boot CD-ROM type: CD/Non-Emulation Booting
    ISOLINUX 2.13 2004 12/14 isolinux: spec package failed, trying to wing loading...

    I've tried the drive on another PC laptop Toshiba, and it worked without any problem.

    It seems my BIOS, or maybe my CD drive (cd/dvd burner) is not compatible. I checked the BIOS update section, but without success - my model has no bios updates (I have a Satellite M45-S331). What can I do to install Linux on this laptop? I have already partitioned my hard drive and created Linux and Swap partitions.

    Hello

    I'm not a Linux Professional, but perhaps the following links can help you.

    These links are of Toshiba Europe and Japan, maybe that your laptop is not listed because you have a U.S. model.

  • can I install photoshop on my computer mac laptop and my laptop as a backup? It works cross-platform?

    my purchase work cross platform?

    It depends on what you bought.  If you ask about a subscription to creative cloud, then Yes, you can install and activate on one or two platforms.  If you ask about a version of CS, unless you have purchased a multiplatform license, which is not at all normal, you can use it on the platform for which the license has been generated.

    My HP laptop model # G62 - 357 CA, running on Windows 7 suddenly refuses to power. I did all the tests of power, checked the battery, power adapter and everything else I can think of. Even checked with a new power adapter borrowed my IT, but without success. Is that what I can do in my dissertation to make this machince to life wihtout taking into a repair shop. Unfortunately, I am out of warranty so can not even think to send to HP, but I barely used this workbook and only for watching movies and has not been used for any other heavy use. It's barely a year and a half old. No matter what advice or help is very appreciated.
