I committed to make the switch from Microsoft to Linux mint after so many hassles with all the puerile changes in upgrading from Win 7 (which I like) to Win 10 which is just abysmal.
Trouble is it won't boot on my pc and I'm at a loss to see where I've gone wrong.
Here are a couple of screen shots taken on the 2nd & 3rd unsuccessful attempt to load Mint 17.2 to initially a 120 Gig Corsair SSD and then a 1000Gig Seagate mechanical HD
I've successfully burned a DVD from the ISO and it all goes well and then hangs with either one or the other of the two screen shoots I took as below.
Is this possibly a graphic card issue?
The SSD (Samsung 512 gig 840 pro) I had Win 10 upgraded from Win 7 loaded on will not boot now at all and I've tried using the Win 10 repair disc without success though my cloned Win 7 SSD (Samsung 250 gig EVO 840) is working fine so I'm not sure if I have a PC problem or a Linux compatibility issue?
I secure wiped the Corsair Force 120 gig SSD and formatted it prior to tying to load Linux and did the same with the Seagate Mechanical drive and it too would not succussefully boot into Linux
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks John
