I cannot install Ubuntu. When I insert the installation CD in DVD-ROM, my computer does boot from CD and automatically run Windows. I even tried to boot manually from CD but it does not work. My friend told me to use a new DVD-ROM, so I tried it but it does not work too.

System specs:

  • Motherboard: Asrock p4v88
  • CPU is Intel P4 Celeron 2.3GHz
  • 786MB RAM

  • You did try to adjust the BIOS options?

First, please check if your ISO image is corrupted. Go to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM to do so. Then make sure you burn the CD at the slowest speed. If it still cannot boot, then maybe it's a hardware problem.
