you should see if another version of ubuntu 12.04 works on your computer like Xubuntu. The problem could probably be something specific in 12.04 like in the graphic drivers, kernel or unity.
anyway a more appropriate place to get help would be the forums: http://ubuntuforums.org/ good luck!

It worked fine. I decided to upgrade to 12.04 a couple of days ago. I used Update Manager. When it finished, my computer was not able to load the new Ubuntu. It was working very hard. The display froze. I could still move the mouse cursor, but the upper menu and launcher did not show up. I rebooted and tried a few more times. I kept getting the same result. So, I decided to use the CD installer. This time (after the intallation), I got a blank screen. The mouse cursor was visible and I could still use it, but the screen remained blank. Is my hardware too old for Ubuntu 12.04? Is my graphics card too old? I installed Fedora 17, and it's working fine. To generate hardware information, I typed the following commands as root: lshw > lshw lspci -v > lspci I attached the two files. To summarize, I have an Aspire T180, and my graphics card is nVidia Corporation C61 [GeForce 6100 nForce 405]. Thank you in advance for any help.
