hello everyone
i am having problems with installing certain linux distros on my other pc.
1. i'm burning at lower speeds for other pc, but that didn't work
2. have tried different hdds to install to, but still same problem
3. have tried different optical drives to install from, but still same problem
4. have tried different bios settings, but still same problem
i am using blank dvd-r... could this be an issue?
could i have a failing bios on the motherboard? i have noticed some strange behaviour on the hdd controller under ahci
i get these errors on installing linux mint, Ultimate Edition, almost all distros of linux..
sometimes i get a distro successfully installed but doesn't stay stable..
the motherboard is a gigabyte ga870a-ud3 with F3 bios
i'm losing my patience with this., a don't want to throw money at this unless i have to..
would appreciate any feedback on this.
thanks in advance!!
